APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
In IBM Developer for z Systems (IDz) v14.1.2, saving a COBOL source will result in syntax errors due to incorrect indentation, if in the COBOL Editor preference, Window > Preferences > COBOL > Editor > Save Actions, "Format source code > Apply only capitalization option" is enabled. Upon saving the file, the source will be indented incorrectly resulting in syntax errors.
Local fix
In Window > Preferences > COBOL > Editor > Save Actions dialog, disable "Format source code" option or enable "Format source code" with "Apply all formatting options".
Problem summary
The data division formatter code incorrectly checked preferences causing formats to happen when they should not.
Problem conclusion
Modified the data division formatter code to correct the behavior of the formatter according to preferences.
Temporary fix
