Issue/Introduction

Error Message :
N/A

It is not possible to update the field "With NON-JES Output" from NO to YES.

When changes are made to OS390 Job attributes, the dirty flag is not set on the function 'setCompleteJobLog' which causes the problem.

Investigation

Here is an example that causes the problem:
 

public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, SQLException{ 

Connection uc4 = Connection.open("svw-de-uc4p01.balgroupit.com",2217); 
CreateSession login = uc4.login(10,user,department,pass,lang); 

OpenObject oObjekt = new OpenObject(new UC4ObjectName("JOBS.OS390.IEFBR14")); 
uc4.sendRequestAndWait(oObjekt); 

Job job = (Job) oObjekt.getUC4Object(); 
((AttributesOS390) job.hostAttributes()).setCompleteJobLog(1); 

SaveObject save = new SaveObject(job); 
uc4.sendRequestAndWait(save); 

CloseObject close = new CloseObject(job); 
uc4.sendRequestAndWait(close); 

} 

Cause

Cause type:
Defect
