COMMENTS:
When using the TPF merge tool to merge two or three input files, if there is
a blank line at the beginning of any one of the input files, the TPF merge
tool will result in a java.lang.ArrayIndexOfBoundsException on the DOS
windows and it cannot detect any differences or conflicts between the three
files.
When the TPF merge tool has detected a difference and tries to add the dif-
ference into the list of differences. It first reads the whole difference
into a buffer array, and adds each line by determining the last end of line
character and the next end of line character. If the first line is an empty
line, the first character would be a end of line character, and the TPF merge
tool cannot find the previous end of line character, yielding the java
ArrayOutOfBoundsException. The problem is now fixed by handling the special
case of the first line being a blank line.
SOLUTION:
This APAR will be included in the next version released on the internet.
Please contact your CSR if the fix is needed prior to the updated release.
