The information in this article applies to:
No warning or error is issued when a method is invoked and the number of rows in an input recordset does not agree with the length-specifier (count parameter).
For example, a method has two input parameters: a count parameter and a recordset. The purpose of the count parameter is to indicate the number of rows in the recordset. Although upon execution the actual number of rows in the recordset does not equal the value of the count parameter, no error or warning is issued.
This usage results from importing a COBOL table or group item that contains the OCCURS DEPENDING ON clause. The OCCURS DEPENDING ON clause specifies another variable, which is the length-specifier.
Using Component Builder, you can view the properties of the recordset input parameter and click the Recordsets tab to see that the “Occurs depending on” option is selected. The “Occurs depending on” option specifies the count parameter mentioned above as the length-specifier of the OCCURS DEPENDING ON clause in the imported COBOL.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in COM Transaction Integrator for CICS and IMS version 1.00.
