Error description
Rational Developer for System z 8.5 - RDz - Realtime syntax check returns 'Misplaced construct' on valid PLI EXEC CICS command/statement. When opening a PL/I CICS program in the LPEX or PLI editor, real-time syntax checks flags EXEC CICS command/statement with 'Misplaced construct'. This condition/error occurs when a data-area on EXEC CICS command/statement includes 2 or more qualifiers. For example: EXEC CICS PUT CONTAINER( 'SERVICE-ROOT') FROM( a.b ); OK EXEC CICS PUT CONTAINER( 'SERVICE-ROOT') FROM( a.b.c ); 'Misplaced construct' EXEC CICS PUT CONTAINER( 'SERVICE-ROOT') FROM( a.b.c.d ); 'Misplaced construct' Local Fix: N/A

Problem summary
Rational Developer for System z 8.5 - RDz - Realtime syntax check returns 'Misplaced construct' on valid PLI EXEC CICS command/statement.

Problem conclusion
The real-time syntax check parser in the PL/I and System z LPEX editors showed an incorrect warning annotation when a user-defined data area used in an EXEC CICS statement in a PL/I program includes 2 or more qualifiers. Only 1 data name qualifier was accepted.
