PM72971: EQQPIFJV ENHANCED TO PROCESS MULTIPLE JCL VARIABLE TABLES AT ONE TIME

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as new function.

Error description

• Program Interface sample program SEQQSAMP(EQQPIFJV) as currently
  supplied stops processing if the last variable defined in a new
  table is DEPENDENT.  The program source will be updated to add a
  check for a NEWTABLE statement before terminating.  This will
  make it possible to create multiple tables in a single session
  when one or more of the new tables ends with a DEPENDENT
  variable.

  ****************************************************************
  When running EQQPIFJV to define more Variable Tables at one
  time, any ADDTABLE statement following a preceeding table
  definion might fail if the last variable defined in the
  previous table is a Dependent variable. The ADDTABLE statement
  is ignored and the EQQPIFJV processing stops.
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

Comments

• The problem only occurs when the code to handle the definition
  of a dependent variable is invoked and the next statement to
  be processed is a following ADDTABLE.
  ADDTABLE was not included among the valid statements.
