Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.2 compiling     *
    *                 programs at OPT(1|2) that move an            *
    *                 alphanumeric or group data item A to         *
    *                 another data item B, change the value of A,  *
    *                 and use B in a subsequent statement as a     *
    *                 sender.                                      *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The subsequent statement may use an     *
    *                      incorrect value for B.                  *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF.                      *
    ****************************************************************
    When moving from A to B and then using B in a subsequent
    statement, the optimizer will often be able to use A rather
    than B, producing the same result without converting B to some
    other data type. This often gives a performance increase.
    However, this can only be done when either A is unchanged
    before B is used as a sender, or if the old value of A is used.
    If A is changed by an intermediate statement, it is incorrect
    to use the new value of A in place of B.
    

Problem conclusion

  • The compiler was fixed to either use the old value of A or to
    load B when B was used in a subsequent statement.
