  ****************************************************************
  01.Support for the new configuration option (keycheck) has been
     added to allow a user to provide a pattern for matching file
     I/O subkeys.
  02.Data was not collected if the BMS map name was not found in
     the mapset.
  03.The item and numitems fields might have been changed by CICS
     during the call. No data was collected during the output
     exit processing.
  04.DSNRLI (RRSAF) support has now been added for both recording
     and replay. This typically affects batch users.
  05.A new allow configuration option has been created to give a
     user the ability to force the capture of certain programs
     that the product does not record. Typically, these programs
     start with a 3-character prefix that is normally associated
     with an IBM (or OEM) product that should not be recorded. In
     the event that a user program starts with the same
     3-characters, the user can use this new allow command to
     have collection performed.
  06.A problem existed that caused unusual events (including 0C4
     abends) if the name of a program-program inteception module
     was also the name of an exit point.
  07.The internal EXEC DLI INIT call was not being captured (and
     ignored) and then processed during replay. This caused a
     failure during replay resulting in RC=16 for the playback
     record not being found.
  08.COBOL V4 structures are now checked and supported for
     program-program interceptions.
  09.If an error occurred on an EXEC CICS ENDBR command, the
     replay was not resetting the internal state table and
     produced an incorrect EIBRESP code on the next STARTBR
     command.
  10.In very old CICS maps, it was possible that the length field
     did not exist. This caused a possible 0C4 abend while
     parsing this map.
  

Problem conclusion

• 01.Keycheck configuration added.
  02.The software will now use the first map in the mapset if no
     matching name is found.
  03.The software will now collect any changes to the WRITEQ TS
     command if the item or numitems fields change and use this
     data during replay.
  04.The software will now collect and replay any DSNRLI Db2
     calls.
  05.Allow configuration added.
  06.Correct identification of the program name is now handled.
  07.EXEC DLI INIT calls are now supported.
  08.COBOL V4 load modules are now eligible for program-program
     interceptions.
  09.The state table now allows the correct response code to be
     returned.
  10.The logic now checks for the length field before processing.
