    ****************************************************************
    In Enterprise COBOL 6.4 and above, the compiler was mishandling
    the ABS intrinsic function when it had a decimal numeric
    expression argument, leading to a compiler abort.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was updated to ensure that the ABS intrinsic
    function works correctly for all input argument types, including
    decimal expressions.
