Error description
C translator DFHEDP1$ splits all sourcelines at column 72 by inserting a backslash as a line continuation character. If the character on column 72, however, is a space it just splits the line without inserting the continuation character. This works in most situations. But not for example if you use the "//" as C comment (compile-option SSCOMM). If this line is split without a continuation character the following compile step gets a syntax error : EDC0347 SYNTAX ERROR: POSSIBLE MISSING ';' OR ','
Local fix
Manuelly insert a continuation character in column 72 .
