IBM Rational
Programming Patterns V9.5.0.1 is a fix pack that applies to Rational
Programming Patterns V9.5.
Rational Programming
Patterns V9.5.0.1 (RPP 9.5.0.1) Fix pack mainly focuses on removing generation
differences between Pacbase and RPP, found on Customer repositories.
It also includes some APAR
corrections listed below.
General Information
about the Rational Programming Patterns product, such as documentation and
support resources, software and hardware requirements, can be found on the Rational
Programming Patterns page.
The IBM
Publication Center offers you customized search functions to help you find

Reminder from RPP
8.5 and still applicable:
Some differences
between a same program generated from Pacbase and RPP remain unresolved.
In spite of the fact
that those differences are compensated by the pattern recognition technology,
the consequences are:
- The number of specific
code lines is greater in RPP than in Pacbase
- A new program
created and generated in RPP might be slightly different than in Pacbase
RPP replaces the line
in difference with the line coming from Pacbase and shows the line as it is locally
generated in a tooltip text. Thus:
- The source code of
the program is the same in RPP & Pacbase
- The compilation of
those programs gives the same executable as in Pacbase
Some differences are
solved in RPP, while some others will be solved in upcoming fix packs or
releases.
It is highly
recommended to use this fix pack with the corresponding level of Pacbase when
working on the migration process from Pacbase to RPP:
Pacbase 3.5 Y10E
Impact analysis:
A free reference is
set when the name of a target instance is entered in some text fields of a
source instance. A subreference link is created, even if the target instance is
not defined.
Enhanced management of the specific code:
- Quick fixes for
reconciliation and migration warnings are available directly in the PDP COBOL
editor.
- The Rational
Programming Patterns compare editor makes it possible to compare the contents
of COBOL files.
- A new button in the
-CP Lines tab can be used to generate a Program, Screen, or Server after
modifying its Macro calls. The Rational Programming Patterns COBOL compare
editor opens automatically. It is then easy to see the impacts of the
modifications and to copy specific changes to the new code.
- Tags can be inserted
in a specific code block to dispatch Macro lines inside this block.
