APAR Error Description / Circumvention

-----------------------------------------------
When a data structure is defined with EXTNAME('GDDM'), the
compile fails with msgMCH3601 in 'parse_external_object_name'.
The same problem may occur if the name 'GDDM' is used as an
external name in other situations, such as the DTAARA keyword
for a data definition, or the EXTFILE or EXTDESC keyword for a
file.

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE70125 :
-----------------------------
The ILE RPG compiler will be changed so that 'GDDM' can be used
as an external name.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE70125 :
--------------------------------
Change the external name to '*LIBL/GDDM'.


DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM FIXED FOR APAR SE70272 :
-----------------------------------------------
An RPG program or module fails to compile with msgCPF955D
indicating that there is overflow in the debug data. In
earlier releases prior to release 7.2, the program compiled
successfully, although the amount of debug data in the program
was near the limit in the previous release.

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE70272 :
-----------------------------
The ILE RPG compiler will be changed to reduce the amount
of debug data when none of the source files used in the
compilation contains **FREE.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE70272 :
--------------------------------
If none of the source files in the compilation have **FREE,
adding the following environment variable at compile time may
allow the program to compile.

==> ADDENVVAR QIBM_RPG_FULL_FREE_DEBUG VALUE('N')


DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM FIXED FOR APAR SE70386 :
-----------------------------------------------
When PCML is generated for an RPG program or module and one of
the parameters is a timestamp, the generated PCML is not
correct if the timestamp does not have the default of 6
fractional digits.

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE70386 :
-----------------------------
The ILE RPG compiler will be changed so that the PCML generated
for a timestamp will have the "length" attribute if the
timestamp does not have the default length of 26.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE70386 :
--------------------------------
If the PCML is generated into the module, there is no
circumvention.

If the PCML is generated into a stream file, edit the stream
file and add the "length" attribute to the timestamp.

For example, if the cross reference shows Z(23) for the
timestamp, change the PCML for the parameter from

<data name="TS" type="timestamp" usage="input" />

to

<data name="TS" type="timestamp" usage="input" length="23"/>


DESCRIPTION OF PROBLEM FIXED FOR APAR SE70460 :
-----------------------------------------------
When a procedure with an ON-EXIT section has a call within a
MONITOR group, and the program is cancelled during or after
the call, the ON-EXIT section may not run.

For example, if the job running the following program is ended
with ENDJOB *IMMED while it is running the sleep() call, the
ON-EXIT section will not run. The QPRINT file will not be
produced.

ctl-opt dftactgrp(*no);
dcl-pr sleep uns(10) extproc(*dclcase);
secs uns(10) value;
end-pr;

proc();
return;

dcl-proc proc;
dcl-f qprint printer(80) usropn;
dcl-ds prtds len(80) end-ds;
monitor;
sleep(999);
on-error *all;
endmon;
on-exit;
prtds = 'IN ON-EXIT';
write qprint prtds;
end-proc;

CORRECTION FOR APAR SE70460 :
-----------------------------
The ILE RPG compiler will be changed so that a call operation
within a NONITOR group does not prevent the ON-EXIT section
from runnning.

CIRCUMVENTION FOR APAR SE70460 :
--------------------------------
Move the MONITOR group to another subprocedure that does not
have an ON-EXIT section.

For example:
ctl-opt dftactgrp(*no);
dcl-pr sleep uns(10) extproc(*dclcase);
secs uns(10) value;
end-pr;

proc();
return;

dcl-proc proc;
dcl-f qprint printer(80) usropn;
dcl-ds prtds len(80) end-ds;
procSub(); // Replace MONITOR group with call

on-exit;
prtds = 'IN ON-EXIT';
write qprint prtds;
end-proc;

dcl-proc procSub; // Move MONITOR group here
monitor;
sleep(999);
on-error *all;
endmon;
end-proc;
