Error description

  • In Rational Developer for System z - RDz - v9.5, parsing of DD
    statements with a DSN name containing the "EXEC" qualifier is
    incorrect.
    
    
    1- create a JCL like:
    
    //USER1821 JOB ,
    // MSGCLASS=H,MSGLEVEL=(1,1),TIME=(,4),REGION=144M,COND=(16,LT)
    //COPYSTEP EXEC PGM=IKJEFT01
    //INMVS    DD DSN=USER182.PMRS.EXEC(HELLO),DISP=SHR
    //OUTHFS   DD PATH='/u/user182/hello.cbl',
    //            PATHDISP=(KEEP,DELETE),
    //
    PATHOPTS=(OWRONLY,OCREAT,OEXCL),PATHMODE=(SIRUSR,SIWUSR)
    //SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=*
    //SYSTSIN  DD *
    OCOPY INDD(INMVS) OUTDD(OUTHFS) TEXT CONVERT(YES) PATHOPTS(USE)
    /*
    
    
    2- Observe that EXEC has a different color than USER182.PMRS
    
    3- Select and right-click on Hello
    
    4- Observe that context menu does not show options to
    open/view/browse the member.
    
    5- Replace EXEC by COBOL and context menu appears and Hello can
    be view/open/browse.
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • In the z/OS Explorer JCL editor, DD statements where the data
    set name contains 'EXEC' may incorrectly display the
    'Open/View/Browse JCL procedure' actions on the context menu
    rather than the 'Open/View/Browse Member' actions.
    

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
