Error description
When using the CPSMAPI TRANSLATE command to translate character data for attribute OS2TERMTYP for a TERMDEF resource to CVDA format, the command fails if the character values supplied to the TRANSLATE command contains any numbers (i.e. 1234TERM, 3270TERM). If the value is all characters (i.e. ABCTERM) the TRANSLATE command is successful.

Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: All CICSPlex/SM V3R1M0 Users * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When using the CPSM API TRANSLATE * * command to translate character data * * for attribute OS2TERMTYP for a TERMDEF * * resource to CVDA format, the command * * fails if the character values supplied * * to the TRANSLATE command begin with a * * digit (e.g. 3151TERM, 3270TERM). If * * the value begins with an alphabetic or * * national character (e.g. SEQTERM) the * * TRANSLATE command is successful. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: After applying the PTF that resolves this * * APAR, all MASes must be recycled to pick * * up the new code. Note that the restarts * * do not need to be done at the same time. * * In addition, any CPSM API programs which * * run in a batch or TSO environment must * * access an SEYUAUTH library to which the PTF * * which resolves this APAR has been applied, * * in its STEPLIB concatenation. * **************************************************************** The parsing table for the CPSM API TRANSLATE command defined the FROMCHAR parameter as a NAME, meaning the first character needs to be alphabetic or national ("@","#","$"). In fact, CVDA (and EYUDA) value strings may begin with a numeric digit.
Problem conclusion
The data type of the FROMCHAR parameter of the TRANSLATE API command was changed from NAME to CHAR. In addition modules EYU0ABM0 (ABM0 - Batch API Command Descriptor Formatter) and EYU0XDER (XDER - CICS API Command Descriptor Formatter) were modified to remove "special handling" code for the FROMCHAR attribute.
