Error description
COB V5/V6 code size is considerably larger when compiling programs with a large number of tables using compiler options DATA(24) or WSOPT and OPT(2). An optimization for table indexing was missing optimization opportunities when using WSOPT or DATA(24) compiler options due to different memory location of data items.
Local fix
Compile without WSOPT or DATA(24) compiler options.
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.1 compiling * * programs with a large number of tables and * * using compiler options DATA(24) or WSOPT * * and OPT(2). * * * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Compiler output: Generated program * * size is too large when compiling with * * DATA(24) or WSOPT compiler options and * * OPT(2). * * * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * * * **************************************************************** An optimization for table indexing was missed when using WSOPT or DATA(24) compiler options due to different memory location of data items.
Problem conclusion
Compiler was updated to apply the same table indexing optimizations under WSOPT or DATA(24) compiler options.
