Error description

  • In RPP 9.7.0, some cobol programs must be generated
with the New Generation.
After the New Generation process, the cobol file is displayed
in the cobolpdp editor.
Sometimes as macros are added to the code without first
closing the newly generated code, then when the cbl file is
closed, the macro code does not stick.
When the cobol is re-opened, the macro added in the
previous step is not there anymore.

Local fix

  • After the new generation, if the cbl file is saved and closed,
then following source code edition, including added macros
will stick as expected.

  • ****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
* Users who want to open a COBOL and transform it to the new   *
* generation                                                   *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
* After the transformation to the new generation, the COBOL    *
* editor opens and the modifications that the user does are    *
* not taken into account. He must first close the editor to re *
* open it and at that moment he can modify it; as he used to.  *
