AD Build call dynamic resolution outside paragraph

As discussed with the AD development team, the dynamic resolution works only with MOVEs inside the same paragraph with the CALL, plus a case when you have a MOVE to the same paragraph just before the PERFORM <para-with-the-call>, with the condition that there is no other statement between that MOVE and the PERFORM. In the paragraph with the CALL, only MOVEs SETs, are considered, other statements like other PERFORMs, GOTOs, etc are ignored.

Then, if no value is found it will just use the value used in the definition of the variable. The lab explained this is a limitation by design, as a compromise between performance and accuracy,
In our case, the dynamic call construction is delegated to a “framework” that has a multitude of MOVE in paragraphs specialized in program name construction. For instance in a paragraph there is the population of bytes 1 and 2 of a program name, the bytes 5, 6 and 7 in another and so on…
In this way ADDI retrieves only a part of the program name and seems to build ‘fake’ program names, without any warnings about missing program resolution. This preventsus  to use not only ADDI, but also the Watsonx Code Assistant for Z, because the ‘understand’ phase will produce a wrong output.

We propose two possible (not mutually exclusive) approaches for this RFE:

·       to expand the algorithm because the limitation is only by design for reducing bulding time

·       to introduce the option to add a rule to build the program name in specific paragraphs
