IZ95045: DLL AND EXE FILE VERSION INFORMATION HAS GONE BACKWARDS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: Fileversion query on jvm.dll's version string in
  SR 11 = 2.3.0.45935 and SR12 FP3 = 2.3.0.4133
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• Each segment in the file version string is a 16bit chunk.
  Currently the final segment represents the JVM component build
  identifier.  When this build identifier surpassed what could be
  stored in a 16bit field we hit a problem.
  

Problem conclusion

• This defect will be fixed in:
  5.0.0 SR13
  5.0.0 SR12 FP5
  6.0.0 SR10
  6.0.0 SR9 FP2
  1.4.2 SR13 FP10 (Windows IA32)
  1.4.2 SR13 FP10 (Windows AMD64)
  .
  The JVM has been updated to utilize each file version segment
  more effectively to once again correctly increment the file
  versions on libraries and executables.
  .
  To obtain the fix:
  Install build 20110215 or later
