PH37333: THE COMPILER PRODUCES MORE THAN ONE IGYCB7311-W MESSAGE FOR THE DATA ITEM ON A GIVEN LINE.

Obtain the fix for this APAR.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: The compiler produces more than one
  IGYCB7311-W message for the data item on a given time.
  
  USERS AFFECTED: Users of IBM Enterprise COBOL 6.x compiling
  programs with INITCHECK that contain statements that use the
  same data item more than once.
  
  PROBLEM SUMMARY: The compiler checks each use of every data item
   and reports all places where each data items is uninitialized.
  If a data item is used more than once on the same COBOL
  statement, the compiler sees that as two different uses and
  reports it multiple times.
  
  CONCLUSION: The compiler was fixed so that uninitialized data
  items are only reported once per line. Note that if two distinct
  data items with the same name are used on a single COBOL
  statement and are uninitialized, the compiler will generate a
  message for each.
  

Local fix

• WORKAROUND/CIRCUMVENTION: Compile with NOINITCHECK or ignore the
   duplicate message.
