Error description

  • --- Features ---
    
    -Support for Enterprise COBOL 6.1.
     FIXCAT KEYWORD: COB0601T/K
    
    -Support for Enterprise PL/I 5.1 (31 bit).
    
    -Improve remote code coverage performance for
     RD/z Code Coverage.
    
    -IMS Transaction Isolation:
     Handle the case where the IMS ACB libraries are not coded
     explicitly in the IMS control region JCL as DD cards, but
     rather are dynamically allocated as specified by the DFSMDA
     macro during system definition.
    
    -IMS Transaction Isolation:
     Provide a way in DTU for user to see a list of valid IMS
     system IDs and choose one for creating a private region and
     debugging transactions.
    
    --- End Features ---
    
    --- Service ---
    
    -Remote debug: AT ENTRY CU is not working the same as in MFI
     debug session.
     (PI32685 at 13.1)
    
    -Remote debug: Hovering over variable with invalid address
     causes a hang in the remote debug session.
     (PI44713 at 13.1)
    
    -You can not monitor a variable in Debug Tool assembler session
     if the variable is named name1.name2.
     (PI59498 at 13.1)
    
    -CICS: When setting a breakpoint in a loop which LINKs the same
     active program repeatedly, the breakpoint is never reached
     because too much CPU is used to load the LANGX file. Hence,
     The CICS monitor cancels the transaction because of CPU usage
     before the breakpoint can be reached. Code was changed in the
     LANGX file handling.
    
     See also the ++HOLD for the new SUSAN EQAOPTS comment.
     (PI53847 at 13.1)
    
    -Garbage in monitor displayed after scroll down in monitor
     window.
     (PI59495 at 13.1)
    
    -ABENDS0C1 or ABENDS0C4 when Debug Tool processes Assembler EX
     instruction.
     (PI60375 at 13.1)
    
    -For COBOL V5 subroutines called from within a paragraph - when
     you do a STEP OVER on the paragraph call in remote debug and
     you use a preference file ( no matter which one ) with SET DEF
     LIST in it ( not needed for COBOL V5) caused Debug Tool to
     stop at the entry of the called program unexpectedly.

     FIXCAT KEYWORD: COB0502T/K
     FIXCAT KEYWORD: COB0601T/K
     (PI63156 at 13.1)
    
    -CICS: When using EQADCDEL, not all active VSAM profiles are
     set to inactive which could be set to inactive.
     (PI63913 at 13.1)
    
    -CICS: Abends during EXEC CICS LOAD processing after a task is
     purged.
     (PI65341 at 13.1)
    
    -CICS: Provide better error message if EC INQUIRE PROGRAM gets
     security violation.
     (PI65575 at 13.1)
    
    -CICS: EXEC CICS FREE in Debug Tool session causes problem.
