    ****************************************************************
    When two applications in a group are
    mutually dependent, the OCL add group
    function fails with the message
    EQQCL7QE
    

Problem conclusion

  • The OCL cannot handle the add group when the group contains
    applications mutually dependent. In this case it fails with
    the message EQQCL7QE.
    The new parameter LOOPDEP(YES/NO) has been added.
    When LOOPDEP(NO) is specified, the check, for mutually
    dependent applications in the group, is not done.
    Otherwise the check is done.

    |CHAPTER   : EQQCLnnn messages                                |
    |The message EQQCL7QE has to be documented:                   |
    |EQQCL7QE Applications in GROUP(&XGRP) are mutually           |
    |         dependent                                           |
    |Explanation:  The application group contains applications    |
    |              mutually dependent. Say A10 and A20 are        |
    |              operations in application A, A10 predecessor   |
    |              to A20, and B10 is an operations in B.         |
    |              If A10 is a predecessor to B10 and B10 a       |
    |              predecessor to A20, A and B are mutually       |
    |              dependent. The mutual dependency could also    |
    |              be via other applications in the group.        |
    |              OCL cannot handle such dependencies.           |
    |System action: The request to add group is rejected.         |
    |                                                             |
    |User response: Break up one of the applications given by     |
    |               the messages EQQCL7RI into two to get the     |
    |               predecessor operation (A10) in the chain in   |
    |               one application and the successor operation   |
    |               (A20) in another application.                 |
