Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Description

When analyzing an application using Mainframe analyzer, an Unknown Program object is created when the source code contains a call to a program that is undefined (not present in the source code).

In this case, some Unknown Programs are present in Knowledge Base whereas there is no call for their names in the source code.

It happens when a variable defined with N characters is first assigned a program name with N characters, then assigned a program name with P characters (P < N).
