Barbara,

Thanks a lot for information. I'll check this morning if this PTF is already
installed.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

there was sometime a bug when passing parameters with constant reference.

If I try to change a parameter passed with constant reference, it cannot

be

changed with an EVAL statement in the called procedure, I get a compile
error.
If I try to clear the same parameter with the OpCode CLEAR, it get

compiled

and even worse it really get cleared and if no temporary parameter is
created it is returned to the caller.

Do you know if it is corrected? PTF?

Hi Birgitta, yes, the PTF for APAR SE31036 fixes the problem where the
compiler was allowing a CONST parameter to be cleared.
