V6-MACRO-6719
ERROR: Overflow has occurred; evaluation is terminated
|
User may receive:
ERROR: Overflow has occurred; evaluation is terminated; ERROR: Out of memory.
When a parameter in a macro invocation contains a lot of text. The buffer used for collecting the characters for the parameter is limited to 32K. Prior to 6.08, if the memory request for the buffer exceeded 32K, some platforms would abend with miscellaneous memory problems. To provide graceful error control, a check has been placed on the request for this buffer.
Applications that previously worked in 6.06 and 6.07 may not run in 6.08 due to this change. The circumvention is to remove any unnecessaryblank space in the parameter.
