APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In RDz v9.1.x PL/I parser treats DO-END blocks like a new scope
  for variable, therefore the SQLCA declaration inside the DO
  block is treated as if the variables are only valid there.
  
  EXEC SQL INCLUDE SQLCA
  
  becomes the following in the punch file
  
  /*$*$*$
     EXEC SQL INCLUDE SQLCA
    $*$*$*/
  
     DO;
  DCL
     1 SQLCA  ,
       2 SQLCAID     CHAR(8),
       2 SQLCABC     FIXED BIN(31),
       2 SQLCODE     FIXED BIN(31),
       2 SQLERRM     CHAR(70) VAR,
       2 SQLERRP     CHAR(8),
       2 SQLERRD(6)  FIXED BIN(31),
       2 SQLWARN,
         3 SQLWARN0  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN1  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN2  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN3  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN4  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN5  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN6  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN7  CHAR(1),
       2 SQLEXT,
         3 SQLWARN8  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARN9  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLWARNA  CHAR(1),
         3 SQLSTATE  CHAR(5);
  END;
  

Local fix

• NA
  

Problem summary

• The PL/I parser incorrectly treats DO-groups as a new variable
  scope.
  

Problem conclusion

• Modified the PL/I parser to correctly handle variable scope in
  DO-groups.
