PM65094: OVERWRITING LARGE FIELDS IN MONITOR IS IGNORED IN SCREEN 6

APAR status

• Closed as duplicate of another APAR.

Error description

• Using full-screen interface Debug Tool ignores an update to
  large fields:
  Assume a COBOL-structure:
        *  Muster Monitor
           01 MUSTER-MONITOR.
              05 INT-SPALTE-1                PIC X(171).
              05 INT-FELDER REDEFINES INT-SPALTE-1.
                 10 INT-FELD-1.
                    15 INT-FELD-1-1          PIC X.
                    15 INT-FELD-1-2          PIC X(55).
                    15 INT-FELD-1-56         PIC X.
                 10 INT-FELD-2.
                    15 INT-FELD-2-1          PIC X.
                    15 INT-FELD-2-2          PIC X(55).
                    15 INT-FELD-2-56         PIC X.
                 10 INT-FELD-3.
                    15 INT-FELD-3-1          PIC X.
                    15 INT-FELD-3-2          PIC X(55).
                    15 INT-FELD-3-56         PIC X.
  
  And its use:
       *    Demo Monitor
            MOVE SPACES    TO INT-FELDER
            MOVE
        "asjkdfjkasdfsjkdfhjasdfjkajkdflkasdjflksdflkeeeehjfkj"
                           TO INT-SPALTE-1
            MOVE "aqweiouiqweioqweoqweiioqweriorwier"
                           TO INT-FELD-3
  To recreate the following behaviour SET SCREEN 6 SOURCE MONITOR
  LOG and
  a session using a screen size of 62x160 must be active (SET
  SCREEN 1
  MONITOR SOURCE LOG is working as expected on 62x160 - but
  doesn't use the capabilities of that terminal-size..).
  After stepping into the program, put the field into the monitor
  window:
   MONITOR LIST ( INT-SPALTE-1 ) ;
   MONITOR LIST ( INT-FELDER ) ;
  When you try to overtype the value of INT-SPALTE-1 and press
  enter, the changes are completely ignored by DT.
