For example:
pipe foobar | console FPLSCB027E Entry point FOOBAR not found FPLSCA003I ... Issued from stage 1 of pipeline 1 FPLSCA001I ... Running "foobar" Fine; I understand. pipe .. foobar | console FPLSCB027E Entry point .. not found FPLSCA003I ... Issued from stage 1 of pipeline 1 FPLSCA001I ... Running ".. foobar" Also fine; I understand; But: pipe || foobar | console FPLSCC017E Null stage found FPLSCA192I ... Scan at position 3; previous data "||" Ready(-0017); T=0.01/0.01 13:58:03 I don't understand; where's the "Null stage"? If "||" is a self-escaping sequence, I'd expect: "FPLSCB027E Entry point | not found" pipe query FPLINX086I CMS/TSO Pipelines, 5741-A05/5655-A17 1.0110 (Version.Release/Mod) - Generated 10 Jun 2008 at 09:41:42 -- gil
