  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL 5 and later        *
    *                 releases running programs which use a user   *
    *                 condition handler to catch erroneous         *
    *                 situations in COBOL programs and recover     *
    *                 from them.                                   *

    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: An application running with a user      *
    *                      condition handler terminates with 0C4   *
    *                      occurred at IGZCEV11+X'4968',           *

    * RECOMMENDATION: Install the provided PTF.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    When the user condition handler catches the erroneous situation
    in COBOL programs, COBOL Runtime IGZCEV11 diagnoses the caller
    of the COBOL program as part of the  condition handling.
    IGZCEV11 incorrectly assumes the caller is LE conforming,
    leading to 0C4.

Problem conclusion

  • COBOL Runtime has been enhanced to improve the logic when
    diagnosing the caller.
