PH52630: DATA CORRUPTION USING THE HEXTTEXTTOSTREAM() WITH RESOURCELIB->GETITXUID() IN MULTIPLE NESTED LEVELS

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using IBM Transformation Extender (ITX) 10.1.1.1, during
  mapping it may be noted that certain output data contains
  garbage from an unrelated memory buffer, usually showing data
  from earlier in the data stream.
  

Local fix

• ITXCQ - ITX00061750
  PB / PB
  Circumvention: None
  

Problem summary

• Users Affected:
  IBM Transformation Extender users mapping fields on a output
  card to the same output card.
  
  Problem Description:
  Data corruption when mapping output fields to output fields on
  the same card.
  
  Platforms Affected:
  All
  

Problem conclusion

• Correct issue with incorrect data appearing in output. This
  would occur if one maps an output field and that output field is
   in the current output buffer and there is no room in the output
   buffer for the current mapped data. The output buffer would be
  written out and refreshed and pointer to the prior data would
  now be incorrect. Now the data is saved in an alternate location
   before the buffer is refreshed.
