Hello,
in a previous release (2.2) of Visual-Cobol for Eclipse, it was possible to call a "CBL_GET_CURRENT_DIR"-Routine in a JVM-Cobol-program.
Now in 2.3 I get an error in the same program, when creating an Instance of the JVM-Class in the calling Java-application:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: (class: CobConv, method: cobConv signature: (Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;Ljava/lang/String;)B) Illegal local variable number
I know that the "CBL_CHANGE_DIR"-routine is not supported in JVM-Cobol(and it is documented...). Does anybody know about the "CBL_GET_CURRENT_DIR"-Routine
thanks in advance

#JVMCOBOLHi Harald,
There appears to be a bug in the compiler which is causing this error. I have tracked the cause down to the parameters you are passing to CBL_GET_CURRENT_DIR are part of a group item. If I change these to use 01 levels instead it works correctly.
01 SRVCHDIR-PARAMS.
05 SRVCHDIR-FLAGS PIC X(4) COMP-5.
05 SRVCHDIR-PFADLAENGE PIC X(4) COMP-5 VALUE 128.
05 SRVCHDIR-PFAD-IN PIC X(128).
05 SRVCHDIR-PFAD-OUT PIC X(128).
05 SRVCHDIR-RESULT PIC XX COMP-5.
88 SRVCHDIR-WECHSEL-OK VALUE 0.
88 SRVCHDIR-WECHSEL-NOTOK VALUES 128 129.
change to:
01 SRVCHDIR-FLAGS PIC X(4) COMP-5.
01 SRVCHDIR-PFADLAENGE PIC X(4) COMP-5 VALUE 128.
01 SRVCHDIR-PFAD-IN PIC X(128).
01 SRVCHDIR-PFAD-OUT PIC X(128).
01 SRVCHDIR-RESULT PIC XX COMP-5.
88 SRVCHDIR-WECHSEL-OK VALUE 0.
88 SRVCHDIR-WECHSEL-NOTOK VALUES 128 129.
Could you please open up a new support incident with Customer Care and place my name in the description? I will then create a bug report for this problem.
Thanks.

#JVMCOBOLYou can also try to add the directive NOILNATIVE to the COBOL compile and then it appears to work even with the group item.
I would still like you to open up a support incident so that we can give you a permanent fix for this,
Thanks.
