Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All users of WebSphere MQ Version 7 * * Release 1 Modification 0. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: PL/I programs that include MQ control * * block definitions from SCSQDEFS and/or * * SCSQPLIC libraries have pointer * * variables initialized with function * * null(). * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** PL/I MQ control block definitions use function null() to initialize pointer variables with value 'FF000000'bx. This is not desirable because the queue manager won't recognize fields initialized in this way as null pointers, and instead will treat them as a valid address.
Problem conclusion
PL/I MQ copy books have been changed to initialize pointer variables with function sysnull() which sets value '00000000'bx. 100Y CMQP CMQXP CSQP
