ECO KIT SUMMARY:
An ECO kit exists for F11CD on OpenVMS VAX V6.0 through V6.2. This kit
addresses the following problems.
Problems Addressed in VAXF11C01_062 Kit for OPENVMS VAX V6.0, V6.1,
and V6.2:
o A Non-compliant ISO 9660 CD-ROM may have been incorrectly
mastered such that the volume set fields in various ISO 9660
meta-data are left as '0'. ISO 9660 supports volume sets in
the range of 1 to 32767, so there is no volume set '0'. The
code which does volume switching, has a coding error which
causes an INVEXCPTION crash.
o The $QIO READ-ATTRUBUTES entry for ATR$C_BACKLINK fails to
return the current file/directories backlink in all cases.
This failure impacts Pathworks directory caching.
Problems addressed in the VAXF11C02_061 kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.0,
V6.1:
o A third-party ISO 9660 CD-ROM may contain ISO 9660 meta-data
which does not conform to the ISO 9660 (1988) standard. If
the nature of this non-conformance causes data lengths to
exceed the current data buffer, there is a possibility that
OpenVMS VAX may crash with an access violation from KERNEL
mode, (i.e., INVEXCPTION crash).
Problems addressed in the VAXF11C01_061 kit for OpenVMS VAX V6.0
and V6.1:
o Support for ISO 9660 CD-ROMs fails to return all files present
in a directory when there are filenames without an extension
followed by files with the same filename. The failure shows up
as missing files when a partial or full directory is requested.
For Example:
(COMPLETE DIRECTORY)
Directory DUGAL$DKA400:[000000]
FU.DIR;1 LISTS.DIR;1 LISTSNEW.DIR;1 PICS.DIR;1 SAP3E.;1
SAP3E.DOF;1 SAP3E.FDB;1 SAP3E.IMG;1 SAP3E.IND;1 SETUP.DIR;1
(INCOMPLETE DIRECTORY - Note missing files of type SAP3E.???)
Directory DUGAL$DKA400:[000000]
FU.DIR;1 LISTS.DIR;1 LISTSNEW.DIR;1 PICS.DIR;1 SAP3E.;1
SETUP.DIR;1
