Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V6.1 compiling * * programs with LANG(JP). * * * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: Some compiler messages and some text * * in the listing are printed in English * * instead of Japanese. Some third-party * * debuggers abend when using a listing * * that is mixed English and Japanese. * * * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: Apply the provided PTF. * * * **************************************************************** The method Enterprise COBOL V5.x used to set the language to Japanese was only compatible with 31-bit compilers. In Enterprise COBOL V6.x, which has a 64-bit component, the compiler wasn't updated to use a 64-bit-compatible way of setting the language to Japanese.
Problem conclusion
The compiler was updated to set the language to Japanese, even when 64-bit.
