PH14218: COMPILE-TIME WARNING: IGYCB7309-W THERE MAY BE A LOOP FROM THE"PERFORM" STATEMENT AT PERFORM (LINE XXXX.X)" TO ITSELF.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Compile-time warning:
  
  IGYCB7309-W   There may be a loop from
  the "PERFORM" statement at PERFORM
  (line xxxx.x)" to itself.
  
  RECOMMENDATION TO CUSTOMER: Apply the provided PTF.
  
  PROBLEM SUMMARY: Some information that the compiler uses for its
  analysis of
  SORT/MERGE statements was only being generated when there was
  more than one SORT/MERGE statement in the program.
  
  CONCLUSION: The compiler was updated so that the SORT/MERGE
  information
  needed for its analysis is generated even when there is a
  single SORT/MERGE statement in the program.
