Error description
It is possible for CobolGen to generate some variable and function names that are longer than 30 characters in length causing a COBOL compiler error like: IGYDS0023-E: The COBOL word starting in column 12 contained more than 30 characters. The word was truncated to 30 characters.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * Any users that get compiler errors for cobol names exceeding * * 30 characters * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * If a function parameter is also a nullable and the field * * unique number size >= 3 digits, it is possible to generate a * * cobol variable name > 30 characters causing a compiler error * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * ****************************************************************
Problem conclusion
The limit for the variable name was 17 characters for the EGL part. This has been reduced to 15 characters to allow for the possible 7 extra characters placed at the beginning, plus 6 for a 5-digit number and hyphen and 2 for the nullable indicator variable, totaling 30.
