Hello Fellow Leap Year Survivors,
I'm having a perceived file corruption problem with a new pgm.
I build a file, BUILD MYFILE;REC=-73,,F,ASCII;DISC=5000
I run the pgm which does some system processing and outputs a log file of
sorts to the above. The pgm reads:
SELECT MYFILE ASSIGN TO "MYFILE".
FD MYFILE
RECORD CONTAINS 73 CHARACTERS
DATA-RECORS ARE MYFILE-REC.
01 MYFILE-REC PIC X(73).
WRITE MYFILE-REC.
Pretty vanilla, I figure. But when I print the file, the last 8 characters
of the data are truncated. So, I open the file with QUAD and see this:
/T MYFILE
File numbered
Nbr Rec: 1 Rec Size: 73 Bytes
File code: 0 File Access: IN/OUT
/L ALL
1134.945 005079 0000000000J000301134948277561 TE1LN
What's with the line number (1134.945)?? So, I save the file unnumbered
(K:U). Cool, the line number goes away. But now the file magically has a
record length of 65 instead of 73!!
I know I've seen something like this many moons ago. But it illudes me
now.
