Error description

  • RDz 9.0.1.4 LPEX block delete incorrectly removes trailing
    spaces when command line setting num cob is in effect
    
    
    
    The APAR PI26374 fix caused a regression of the APAR PI23904 fix
    
    
    
    RDz LPEX editor block delete erroneously removes trailing spaces
    outside the marked block
    
    
    A block delete ending at a point that is trailed by blanks finds
    that these blanks are deleted as well
    
    
    Repro scenario:
    
    Sample code:
    
    004730 01  T0000301-AAA.
    
    004740     05  T0000301-BBBBB            PIC X(06).
    
    004750     05  FILLER
    
    
    Open a source file that includes sample code in LPEX editor
    
    Issue LPEX command: num cob
    
    Select from -AAA until and including -BBBBB
    
    Press delete
    
    
    
    Observe that T0000301PIC X(06) has no blanks between T0000301
    and PIC
    

Local fix

    incorrectly removed during block deletes when sequence numbers
    are enabled.
