Error description

  • Rational Developer for System z - RDz - v8.0.3
    In the LPEX editor, when pseudo SO/SI has been introduced in a
    file
    (by checking the option in the local DBCS option), there is no
    way
    to remove it easily.
    
    Local Fix:
    The workaround is as follow:
    Open the File in LPEX
    Hit Ctrl+F to open the find widget
    Select 'Regular Expression'
    Enter in the Find field '[\x1e|\x1f]'  (without the quotes)
    Press replace all
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • When the local DBCS option is on, LPEX removes pseudo SO/SI
    characters when the file is opened, and adds them when the file
    is saved.
    When the local DBCS option is off, LPEX does not remove pseudo
    SO/SI characters when the file is opened. Thus there is no easy
    way to remove them.
    

Problem conclusion

  • If a file contains pseudo SO/SI characters that have been added
    by LPEX, LPEX now removes them when the file is opened, even
    when the local DBCS option is off.
    
    The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with
    IBM Rational Developer for System z V8.0.3.5 Fix Pack which
    is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page:
