MQGET Signal ECB in 64-bit storage

When issuing an MQGET request using Signal1, the C language program fails on an S0C4 abend when the program is compiled as LP64. This is the only function that fails because the ECB is not allocated in 31-bit storage. Since all other parameters are in 64-bit storage it would seem appropriate that the ECB would be there as well. Allocating the ECB using __malloc31 corrected the problem but this requirement seems to not be documented.

    We recognise that this is a valid requirement. However it doesn't fit with our delivery plans for the next couple of years. It would require changes to the MQI where the Signal1 field is unfortunately defined as a 32-bit value. We will however ensure that the restriction is clearly documented.

    As a result we are declining this RFE.
