Error description
-in ZEXPL, switch to the z/OS perspective - from <VM30094>/u/dantec/JVMProfs, I edit Copy of EYUCMCIJ3.jvmprofile - right click on the file shows Transfer Mode ASCII and octal value 775 (this one I don't know if it is important and I don't think so...but we notice that some files are 775, some 666. They were copied into the directory alltogether though, coming from the same directory) - double click, remove anything (just one character or one word, right click -> Save AS -> give new name - Reopen the file. It is correctly displayed - open it from iSPF iShell. it is correctly displayed - from ZEPL, right click -> change ASCII to BINARY, reopen. It is correctly displayed. let it open there - reopen from iShell. it is correctly displayer too. - from ZEXPL, remove another character/another word, Ctrl+S, close - reopen from ZEXPL. THIS TIME IT IS EMPTY - reopen from iShell. This time it is empty - from ZEXPL, change property back to DEFAULT or ASCII, then reopen. Still empty
Local fix
Use the Remote System Explorer
Problem summary
When changing the file transfer mode from ASCII -> BINARY and then saving the file is no longer readable in the text editor when opened.
Problem conclusion
Updated getFileHFS() -> RSEConnection.java to retrieve the fie contents using the FileServiceSubSystem (DStoreFileService) wrapper. Added a check in saveFileHFS() -> RSEConnection.java using IFileService.TEXT or IFileService.ASCII comparison.
Temporary fix
