Dear Sir,
I am using Conver-IBM390-0.20 for converting number into packed decimal. I found an conversion error in CF_num2packed when I trying to convert 9999010000000979 into packed value, the packed valued read in IBM machine become 9999010000000978.
The packed value read in IBM machine will be the original value minus 1. This only happen to odd number such as 9999010000000975, 9999010000000977, 9999010000000979. The conversion is working fine for even number such as 9999010000000974, 9999010000000976.
May I know is there any enhancement or solution for this senario. Thank you.
