Error description
Headline/Abstract (128 Character limit - 2 lines of 64 chars) : *************************************************************** Rational Developer for System z (RDz) Lines with Non-displayable characters are truncated when edited from the CARMA view. APAR Error Description (unlimited lines of 64 chars): *************************************************************** Rational Developer for System z - RDz - v8.0.3.3 Opening a program containing non-displayable characters (x'00' - x'30') from CARMA Repositories view, CARMA will truncate those statements. But the same program opened from dataset in z/OS project view is displayed correctly. Re-creation steps: Open a COBOL member and define a line with a low-value (x'00'): 01 F21 PIC X VALUE ' '. Open that COBOL file from Remote System Explorer view, we see: 01 F21 PIC X VALUE ' '. Open it from the CARMA Repositories view, we see: 01 F21 PIC X VALUE ' So the line is truncated, starting from that non-displayable character. *************************************************************** Local fix: None

Problem conclusion
01.The CARMA Server code was truncating file records that contained a x'00' byte. The server code has been modified so that it no longer truncates the file records and the x'00' byte is sent to the client along with the rest of the data in the file.
Temporary fix
