#8 problem parsing level 88s

[lee]

A problem occured parsing 88s, for example :-

C:\Projects\COBOL>cbx DZFMT1-REC.cpy DZFMT1-REC.xml
*** using start column = 6, end column = 72
*** debug mode ***
class net.sf.cb2xml.sablecc.node.TDataName, state : 0,
text : [DZFMT1-REC]
*** fatal parse error ***
[1,1] expecting: number88, number not88
=== buffer dump start ===
DZFMT1-REC
=== buffer dump end ===

oOo

Example copybook :-

01 DZFMT1-REC.
03 DZFMT1-HEADER-REC.
05 DZFMT1-REC-ID PIC X(01).
88 IREC-HEAD
VALUE '1'.
88 IREC-DETAIL
VALUE '2'.
88 IREC-TRAIL
VALUE '3'.

I suspect it was caused by one of:

• Tabs in the text, this will be fixed in version 0.95
• It was a free Form Copybook in which case they should specify start-columnb=1 end-column=1024
