AnchorCoder Version 5.00.05.O Released December 2023

 

Enhancements

This release contains the following update to AnchorCode for Mainframe customers only: 
  The AnchorCoder API for CICS may encounter an endless loop when using remote file definitions. 
  The key length specified on the STARTBR with the generic option was not being carried forward 
  on subsequent READNEXT commands. For remote files, if KEYLENGTH is not defined in the file
  definition, and is not specified in the application program, and the key is longer than 4 
  characters, the default value is 4. This causes the browse to be repositioned and each READNEXT 
  command returns the same record resulting in a looping condition. The AnchorCoder API has
  been updated to specify KEYLENGTH on the READNEXT command.

 

Corrections

This release fixes an issue where we were not processing an address through LACSLink® if there was only address information in input address-line 2.

   For Example:

  Address-Line-1 Address-Line-2 Last-Line
INPUT:   HC 70 BOX 196 DAVIS WV 26260
OLD OUT:   HC 70 BOX 196 DAVIS WV 26260 (no match)
NEW OUT: 6379 APPALACHIAN HWY   DAVIS WV 26260-8056
