Error description

  • Rational Developer for System z - RDz - V9.1.1
    
    Consider a program that calls a copybook with a 'REPLACING BY'
    statement:
    
          Copy CPYB001 Replacing ==:Tag:== By ==L-AREA==.
    
    
    Consider that the copybook contains an 'OCCURS INDEXED BY' or
    a 'REDEFINES' statement:statement:
             10 :Tag:-Entry       Occurs 5 times
                                  Indexed by :Tag:-Index.
       ....
       10 :Tag:-R-Item  Redefines :Tag:-Base-Item Pic X(4).
    
    The zUnit "Generate Test Program" wizard against that program
    will not replace the index/redefined data item .
    
    Steps to reproduce:
    
    Copybook CPYB001.cpy contains an OCCURS INDEXED BY and a
    REDEFINES statement:
    
          01 :Tag:-Area.
               05  :Tag:-No-of-Entries          Pic 9(4).
               05  :Tag:-Table.
                   10 :Tag:-Entry               Occurs 5 times
                                    Indexed by :Tag:-Index.
                      15 :Tag:-SourcePointer    Pointer.
                      15 :Tag:-SourceLength     Pic s9(9) Comp.
    
         05 :Tag:-Base-Item    Pic X(4).
               05 :Tag:-R-Item  Redefines :Tag:-Base-Item Pic X(4).
    
    Program PROG001 calls copybook CPYB001:
    
          Copy CPYB001 Replacing ==:Tag:== By ==L-AREA==.
    
    
    In the generated program, the string ";tag:" has not been
    replaced by "L-AREA" in the 'OCCURS INDEXED BY' and/or in the
    REDEFINES statement:
    
           LINKAGE SECTION.
           1 L-AREA-AREA.
             5 L-AREA-NO-OF-ENTRIES Pic 9(4).
             5 L-AREA-TABLE.
             10 L-AREA-ENTRY Occurs 5 times INDEXED BY :Tag:-Index.
             15 L-AREA-SOURCEPOINTER Pointer.
             5 L-AREA-BASE-ITEM Pic X(4).
             5 L-AREA-R-Item    Redefines :Tag:-Base-Item Pic
    X(4).
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Consider a program that calls a copybook with a 'REPLACING BY'
    statement:
          Copy CPYB001 Replacing ==:Tag:== By ==L-AREA==.
    
    Consider that the copybook contains an 'OCCURS INDEXED
    BY'/REDEFINES
    statement:
                   10 :Tag:-Entry       Occurs 5 times
                                        Indexed by :Tag:-Index.
                5 :Tag:-Base-Item    Pic X(4).
                5 :Tag:-R-Item       Redefines :Tag:-Base-Item Pic
    X(4).
    The zUnit "Generate Test Program" wizard against that program
    will not replace the index data item and redefined data item.
    

Problem conclusion

  • zUnit Source Generation has been corrected so that name of all
    data items would be replaced correctly.
    
    The problem listed in this APAR has been resolved with
    IBM Rational Developer for System z V9.1.1.1 Fix Pack which
    is available from the Recommended Fixes support download page:
