APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
The compiler is keeping debug symbols for template meta-programming types that exist only during the compile. For some programs, these debug symbols represent a significant part of the binary.
Local fix
N/A
Problem summary
Template meta-types are classes that contain no members other than enums, enumerators, static member variables, static member functions, or typedefs. These classes are meant to do computation at compile-time, so their debug information is likely unnecessary and can be eliminated to reduce the size of the debug section.
Problem conclusion
Under option control, the user can chose to eliminate debug symbols for meta template types: -qxflag=NoKeepDebugMetaTemplateType
