RE: Having problems with CL V5R4 DCL STG(*DEFINED) DEFVAR

I think it was a bug, that's fixed by the SI27953 PTF:

Hi folks,

Here is a snippet of some code:

PGM        PARM(&SAVF)

DCL        VAR(&SAVF) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(20) /* name & +
             library */
DCL        VAR(&SAVFNAME) TYPE(*CHAR) STG(*DEFINED) +
             LEN(10) DEFVAR(&SAVF 1)
DCL        VAR(&SAVFLIB) TYPE(*CHAR) STG(*DEFINED) +
             LEN(10) DEFVAR(&SAVF 11)

When testing this program, I passed in a save file name of SAVFNAME1 and a
save file library of SAVFLIB1.

Here are the values at runtime using debug:
&SAVF = 'SAVFNAME1 SAVFLIB1  '
&SAVFNAME = 'SAVFNAME1 '
&SAVFLIB = 'SAVFNAME1 '

As you can see, &SAVFLIB is not correct and I can't figure out why.
Any help would be appreciated.

Tks,

Glenn Gundermann
