I would agree with what you're saying Larry except the DATA-INTO opcode is new in TR4 I think. That being the case I would expect these PTF's to be a little more important, from Paul's comments it sounds like the feature doesn't work without the mentioned PTF's.

Subject: Re: V7R3 Important / Critial PTFs not part of any CUM and/or group

The e-mail below is from an external source. Please do not open attachments or click links from an unknown or suspicious origin.

First these guys are about 1 month old so only enough time to possible make one HIPER even if they qualified.

Second I think it depends on the definition of important / critical and HIPER to make that call.

Understand that these PTFs do not affect the system or TCP/IP or disk support or the database or the web servers or currently operating code.
In other words their absence has zero affect on the operation of your server or your business. So at least in my view they do not meet the definition of HI (High Impact) or PER (PERvasive).

Sure they muck up your compiles and for your team that's an issue.
Fortunately is easily resolved with these PTFs which are able to be applied immediately.

But that's the view from my chair.

IPL'd this past weekend for latest CUM, TR4, and latest Groups.
Report from staff this morning that RPGLE compiles were failing when trying to use new TR4 features.

Turns out the four PTFs below were released to fix issues related to RPLE compiler and TR4.
Nothing from IBM about these PTFs.

SI67185 This PTF provides the *CURRENT compiler support for the
DATA-INTO opcode
SI67187 This PTF provides the runtime support for the DATA-INTO opcode
SI63445 This PTF provides the *PRV compiler support for the DATA-INTO
opcode
SI67183 This PTF provides the copy file you will need to write your own parser. It also provides some sample parsers. See the "Files in library QOAR" section below for details.

Luckily, they all could be applied immediately, no IPL needed.
I'm running into this often.
Why aren't PTFs like these included in the bi-weekly hyper group, SF99729?

Thank You
