Problem Note 67219: Errors occur when a long value is passed to the MATCH method in a PCRXFIND DS2 package

DetailsCodeHotfixAboutRate It

When the MATCH method in a DS2 PCRXFIND package is passed a long value, the following errors occur:

ERROR: Error reported by DS2 package pcrxfind:
ERROR: Unknown error encountered in rx package.
ERROR: Error reported by DS2 package pcrxfind:
ERROR: Cannot perform operation without a successful match.
ERROR: Fatal run-time error.
ERROR: General error

The Full Code tab contains a sample program that causes the errors.

In the sample program, the value of &Formula2 is 3,685 characters in length, and this macro variable causes the errors. However, a longer length value in &Formula3 runs to completion without errors because it consists of shorter pattern groups.
