That behavior should be APARable. SuperC should have better response to
even very bad input data.
Absolutely, but that's not something I can do, running the code on an ADCD
system.
And CBTTAPE 093 should detect and report the input data inconsistent with
output attributes.
In an ideal world it should, but the program was more than likely written to
fulfill a specific task, where the input data was always correct. You can try to
make your code idiot proof, but there will always be bigger idiots...
