Issue/Introduction

Is it possible to output and detect message IDs that begin with @?
Specifically, is it possible to output and detect messages like the following?

 

@@@@@@ abc123x XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX RC=xx    

Environment

Release : All

Resolution

Due to the specification of message IDs, the special character @ is considered to be issued from a program that is not WTO-approved.
Therefore, due to the specification that it is deleted from the beginning of the message ID, @ cannot be used at the beginning of the message ID.


As a countermeasure, it is possible to use characters other than @ in the message ID as follows.

 Example: A@@@@@, B@@@@@
