APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • With LE abend handler CEEHDLR enabled, called program
    encounters an exception. Processing resumes, as expected.
    However, when the main program issues a CANCEL for the called
    program with the exception, message IGZ0032S is issued
    

Local fix

  • Use COBOL V4.2
    

Problem summary

  • ****************************************************************
    * USERS AFFECTED: Users of Enterprise COBOL V5 and later       *
    *                 releases running programs which use          *
    *                 CEEHDLR, CEE3SRP, and CEEMRCE services       *
    *                 to handle LE conditions raised in            *
    *                 dynamically called programs.                 *
    ****************************************************************
    * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The program terminated with message:    *
    *                      IGZ0032S A CANCEL was attempted on      *
    *                      active program.                         *

    *                      Before this message was issued, the     *
    *                      COBOL program set a condition           *
    *                      handler and a resume point using LE     *
    *                      services CEEHDLR, CEE3SRP, and          *
    *                      CEEMRCE. Later when an attempt was      *
    *                      made to CANCEL a dynamically called     *
    *                      subprogram, after a condition was       *
    *                      raised and handled, the program         *
    *                      terminated with message IGZ0032S.       *
    ****************************************************************
    * RECOMMENDATION: Install the provided PTF.                    *
    ****************************************************************
    When a COBOL subprogram is called using dynamic call, and is
    active in the call chain on the stack, the COBOL Runtime
    Dynamic Call Handler keeps track of the active status of this
    subprogram. Later when a condition occurs in the call chain
    (while this subprogram is still active), and the condition is
    handled by CEEHDLR, and then control is resumed (using CEE3SRP
    and CEEMRCE services) to a point before the dynamic call, the
    Runtime Dynamic Call Handler would lose track of the status of
    this subprogram, and consider it still active (not yet return).
    When an attempt is made to CANCEL this subprogram, IGZ0032S is
    emitted.

Problem conclusion

  • COBOL Runtime has been enhanced to handle transfer of control
    around dynamic calls due to LE conditions.
