PM81608: CONNECT:EXPRESS FOR Z/OS 4.3.0, TOMTABL DOESNT LCOSE WHEN WE EXIT THE PANELS.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• We allocate the ddnameTOMTABL to use MEMO. But, when we go out
  of the CX panels, TOMTABL is still OPEN so we can't desallocate
  it. That's a problem because we don't want the same MEMO for
  all the Connect:Express.
  

Local fix

  CN/CN
  Circumvention: None
  

Problem summary

• This issue relates  to ISPF table management when table are
  opened using libraries.
  Library used for tables is not closed when TBEND or TBCLOSE is
  issued and library can not be freed.
  ISPF release the library on a next TBOPEN on a new library
  From ISPF doc:
  IKJ56861I FILE ddname NOT FREED, DATA SET IS OPEN
  
  If the LIBRARY parameter is used with a table service, the user
  is not able to free the ddname for the table library pointed to
  by the LIBRARY parameter.  ISPF keeps this library open until a
  new ddname is used in the LIBRARY parameter with another table
  service. ISPF functions in this manner for performance reasons.
  

Problem conclusion

• Code Fixed by opening a DUMMY table on a DUMMY library
  

Temporary fix
