Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 6.3 compiling      *
    *                 programs with the ZONEDATA(MIG|NOPFD)        *
    *                 option in effect and the programs contain a  *
    *                 comparison between a binary item (usage      *
    *                 COMP/COMP-4/COMP-5/BINARY) and a packed      *
    *                 decimal item (usage COMP-3/PACKED-DECIMAL)   *
    *                 such that the precision of the binary item   *
    *                 is less than the precision of the packed     *
    *                 decimal item and the sum of the maximum      *
    *                 integer precision of both items with the     *
    *                 maximum decimal precision of both items is   *
    *                 > 30 when ARITH(COMPAT) is in effect or >    *
    *                 31 when ARITH(EXTEND) is in effect.          *

    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    The compiler was failing to cap the intermediate result value of
    the computation at the maximum intermediate result precision
    indicated by the current value of the ARITH option in effect.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was updated to cap the intermediate result value of
    the computation at the maximum intermediate result precision
    indicated by the current value of the ARITH option in effect.
