Error description

  • The messages IGZ0304W through IGZ0314W introduced by APAR
    PI72127 were intended to improve SSRANGE messaging by showing
    the program name incurring the SSRANGE condition. While this
    works in the batch environment, in the CICS environment the
    program name is blank.

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.3 compiling and  *
    *                 running programs in a CICS environment       *
    *                 where the program is compiled with the       *
    *                 SSRANGE option in effect.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Bad runtime message output.             *
    *                                                              *
    *                      SSRANGE-related runtime messages may    *
    *                      contain an invalid value for the name   *
    *                      of the affected program.                *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When generating code for SSRANGE runtime messages, the compiler
    would sometimes avoid generating code to explicitly set up the
    message insert for the name of the affected program and would
    instead rely on the runtime to fill in the program name value,
    but this method is not always reliable in a CICS environment.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was updated to ensure that the program name message
    insert for SSRANGE-related messages is always explicitly
    specified.
