The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
We ran into an issue where a variable, defined as *CHAR with a length of 5000, but either initialized or data moved to this field exceeded 5000 characters, caused a subsequent command to fail because of length limitation issue, CPD0183. How can this happen? Is this a bug? How can a field have more data than it was defined for.
We saw the same results if the data was defined in an RPGLE program, passed it the CL.
DCL VAR(&M) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(5000)
SWPUSRPRF USRPRF(CPATEXT) CMD(SNDDST TYPE(*LMSG) +
TOINTNET((psteinmetz@xxxxxxxxxx)) +
DSTD(TEST) LONGMSG(&M))
Message ID . . . . . . : CPD0183 Severity . . . . . . . : 30
Message type . . . . . : Diagnostic
Date sent . . . . . . : 05/02/13 Time sent . . . . . . : 09:22:03
Message . . . . : Embedded command SNDDST too long.
Cause . . . . . : The length specified for the embedded command exceeds the
defined length. Command length is 5001, but the maximum length for the
embedded command string is 5000.
Thank You
