RS03813: CANNOT PROVIDE A BODY FOR CAST OPERATOR

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• The case of cast operator (like having in the BOM public static
  double operator @double(ilog.rules.brl.CurrencyEuro value); ) is
  a special case, and in the current implementation you cannot
  write a body for it in B2XA (it just doesn't work). The behavior
  that we are seeing is that this body is not considered, and the
  fallback mechanism which is to check  if  the execution type is
  compatible with the cast returned type works and produces no
  error.
