Error description
CICS translator for PL/1 comment out each EXEC CICS statement and create a DO; statement instead. If by accident the delimiter of an EXEC CICS command, the semicolon (;) is on column 68, the */ is disrupted. The * is coded in the first line, the / on the next line. When this listing is saved as a side-file, the debugger using this side-file gets into trouble
Local fix
Code PL/1 delimiter for EXEC CICS statement not in column 68.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The PL/I translator may split an end * * comment delimiter over two lines and * * cause problems for the RDz PL/I Debug * * Tool. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** When the CICS translator turns an EXEC CICS command into PL/I code, the EXEC CICS command is commented-out by adding slash asterisk at the beginning and asterisk slash at the end. If the EXEC CICS statement's semi-colon is in column 68, the trailing asterisk slash is split over two lines. While this doesn't cause a problem for PL/I compiler, it does for Debug Tool. Keywords: PL/1 PL1 PLI
Problem conclusion
DFHEPMPP has been changed and will no longer split a comment delimiter over 2 lines if the default MARGINS setting of MARGINS(2,72,0) is used.
