@alfax218 are you suggesting you were able to open up those members in 1.3.7? You should downgrade for the time being if that's the case.

[worksofliam]

@p-behr check this out.

I can open those members only if i downgrade to 1.3.3

[worksofliam]

@alfax218 we know the issue. A fix will be out sometime today.

[worksofliam]

@alfax218 1.3.9 with this fix is deploying now. Thanks @p-behr !

Problem fixed!
Keep going, you're doing a great job!

@chrjorgensen Take a look at this issue. I know we're looking at CCSID issues, but isn't it hilarious that member names can have this character in them?

[chrjorgensen]

@worksofliam This is indeed also a CCSID issue - the CCSID 37 US characters '#@$' becomes '£§$' in CCSID 280 ITA.
I guess an Italian will maybe not use any of the characters '£§$' in a member name, but if the member is installed or restored from an external (american) party, these characters may get used anyway.

This is exactly the kind of problem, that my PR #714 will fix - no more need for adding special characters to the regexp for system names... 😃
