    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: 0C4/AKEA abend happened when a Java     *
    *                      application runs from a terminal        *
    *                      with TCTUA and calls getTCTUA method    *

    * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
    ****************************************************************
    A Java application runs from a terminal with TCTUA. When
    constructing a terminal instance, CICS gets the common data from
    current terminal which include the TCTUA address. 31 bit TCTUA
    address is stored in a 4 bytes array. Later in the application,
    getTCTUA is called. A 64 bit pointer is used to get the value
    from previous byte array to address TCTUA. The byte array only
    has 4 bytes so the following 4 bytes in storage are read as well
    The incorrect TCTUA pointer results in 0C4 abend when copying
    the TCTUA into holder's byte array.
    Additional keywords: abend0C4, abendS0C4
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix

  • FIX AVAILABLE BY PTF ONLY
    

Comments

  • DTCTerminal.c has been modified to correctly get TCTUA address
    when getTCTUA or setTCTUA is called.
