Re: Weird INFDS problem

Code a few COMP statements like the one below into your program, and run it. When it fails on one of them, add the COMP statement at every statement between the previous good one and the failing one. Run the program again, and you should be able to see exactly where the problem starts.

C INFDS COMP *BLANKS 10


Bingie!

There's a data structure used to pass language translation data back to the offending program from another that loads it from a user space. It seems that in the offending program, the receiving structure hadn't been updated to reflect the latest expansion of the translation data. And unfortunately, the INFDS pointer was evidently in the overflow zone.
