APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • The compile listing numbers base locators starting with 1 in the
    MAP option output and the "Data Division Map" report, but the
    CEEDUMP numbers them starting at zero.
    

Local fix

  • None, other than keeping the difference in mind when using the
    CEEDUMP.

    * RECOMMENDATION: Install the provided PTF.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    Depending on the type of base locator (BL) cell, the number
    ordering in the CEEDUMP for some BL cells start at 0 while the
    numbering for the same BL cell starts at 1 in the compiler
    listing or vice-versa.

Problem conclusion

  • The COBOL Runtime logic has been fixed to follow the same
    number ordering for base locator (BL) cells as listed in the
    compiler listings.
