One option is to stop compiling to a previous release.

QSYSINC/QUSLFLD usage in RPG in V5R2






We just recently upgraded our OS to V5R2 and we had a program that was
using the QUSLFLD

D/COPY QSYSINC/QRPGLESRC,QUSLFLD 

We have always compiled to a previous release, when creating the
program. We are now seeing a compile error for around 8 fields that
are in the copy book. One of the errors is with this field below.

QUSICCSW              477    492P 0 
                                            IC Curr Start With 

RNF0503 - Length of numeric item QUSICCSW00 is greater than 30 
digits; defaults to 30. 

The problem is that IBM decided to add 31 byte numeric fields to the
end of the record formats QUSL0100, and now we cannot get these
programs to compile after we introduced a small change, unless we
decide to set the targer compile release to V5R2.

Has anyone encountered this problem and how has it been handled other
than deciding to not use QSYSINC any more.

Thanks

Krish
