I'm testing some code on z/OS 1.5 and find that CONVTOD will not accept
a year greater than 2042, even though an ETOD is requested. Does anyone
know if there is an APAR that extends this limit? I'm trying to use it
for date calculations that could, potentially, involve dates that are
100 years into the future.
That's not surprising. When CONVTOD was updated to accept STCKE
input/output, more than likely the changes were minimal -- i.e., an
8-bit shift of the 64-bit value. We've done the same here for most of
our TOD value handling routines as well. (No attempt to actually work
with values longer than 64 bits.)
Things will probably stay that way until somebody complains. Have you
tried getting an APAR opened?
