JCL Error trying z/OS JSON parser programming example - c++

I tried copying the c++ example as mentioned here -
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSLTBW_2.3.0/com.ibm.zos.v2r3.ieac100/ieac1-cwe-json-prog.htm
However, I am getting the following JCL error when running on my system :
IEF344I XC1CPLLE COMPILE SYSLIB - ALLOCATION FAILED DUE TO DATA FACILITY SYSTEM ERROR
IGD17045I SPACE NOT SPECIFIED FOR ALLOCATION OF DATA SET
SIEAHDR.H
IEF272I XC1CPLLE COMPILE - STEP WAS NOT EXECUTED.
Here is a copy of my modified program :

The JCL to which you provide a link contains a JCL error. The SYSLIB DD of the COMPILE step has no DISP and thus defaults to DISP=(NEW,DELETE,DELETE). A status of NEW requires space allocation and none is provided, so you get the error in your question. To fix this particular problem, I suggest coding DISP=SHR on the SYSLIB DD in the COMPILE step.
I recommend talking to your support staff about standard compile procedures, as most shops implement their own.

gcc gprof/gcov/other - how to get sequence of function calls/exits + control flow statements

BACKGROUND
We have testers for our embedded GUI product and when a tester declares "test failed", sometimes it's hard for us developers to reproduce the exact problem because we don't have the exact trace of what happened.
We do currently have a logging framework but us devs have to manually input those logging statements in the code which is fine . . . except when a hard-to-reproduce bug occurs and we didn't have a log statement at the 'right' location and then when we re-build, re-run the test with the same steps, we get a different result.
ISSUE
We would like a solution wherein the compiler produces extra instrumentation code that allows us to see the exact sequence of events including, at the minimum:
function enter/exit (already provided by -finstrument-functions)
control-flow statement enter i.e. entering if/else, which case statement we jumped to
The log would look like this:
int main() entered
if-line 5 entered
else-line 10 entered
void EventLoop() entered
. . .
Some additional nice-to-haves are
Parameter values on function entry AND exit (for pass-by-reference types)
Function return value
QUESTION
Are there any gcc tools or even paid tools that can do this instrumentation automatically?
You can either use gdb for that, and you can automate that (I've got a tool for that in the works, you find it here or you can try to use gcov.
The gcov implementation is so, that it loads the latest gcov data when you start the program. But: you can manually dump and load the data. If you call __gcov_flush it will dump the current data and reset the current state. However: if you do that several times it will always merge the data, so you'd also need to rename the gcov data file then.

Running the executable of hdl_simple_viewer.cpp from Point Cloud Library

The Point Cloud library comes with an executable pcl_hdl_viewer_simple that I can run (./pcl_hdl_viewer_simple) without any extra arguments to get live data from a Velodyne LIDAR HDL32.
The source code for this program is supposed to be hdl_viewer_simple.cpp. A simplified version of the code is given on this page which cannot be compiled readily and requires a tiny bit of tweaking to make it compile.
My problem is that the executable that I build myself for both the versions are not able to run. I always get the smart pointer error "Assertion px!=0" error. I am not sure if I am not executing the program in the correct way or what. The executable is supposed to be executed like
./hdl_viewer_simple -calibrationFile hdl32calib.xml -pcapFile file.pcap
in case of playing from previously recorded PCAP files or just ./hdl_viewer_simple if wanting to get live data from the real sensor. However, I always get the assertion failed error.
Has anyone been able to run the executables? I do not want to use the ROS drivers
"Assertion px!=0" is occurring because your pointer is not initialized.
Now that being said, you could initialize it inside your routines, in case the pointer is NULL, especially for data input.
in here, you can try updating the line 83 like this :
CloudConstPtr cloud(new Cloud); //initializing your pointer
and hopefully, it will work.

Timed Indexed Color sets in CPN Tools that results in Unhandled Exception Error

I am using CPN Tools to model a distributed system. CPN Tools uses CPN ML an extension of SML. The project homepage is: cpntools.org
I started with a simple model and when I try to make a particular indexed color set timed, I get an "Internal error". There is another indexed colorset within my Petri-net model that is timed and works correctly. I am not sure how I can troubleshoot since I don't understand the error message. Could you help me interpret the error message or give me some hints on what I could be doing wrong?
The model is:

The declarations of the model are:

The error message is:
Internal error: Compile error when generating code. Caught error.../compiler/TopLevel/interact/evalloop.sml:296.17-296.20../compiler/TopLevel/interact/evalloop.sml:44.55../compiler/TopLevel/interact/evalloop.sml:66.19-66.27

Thank you~
I know this is an old question, but I run in the same problem and wasted too much time on this, so maybe it will help someone else in the future.
I didn't understand exactly the reason for this, but it seems the problem appears when you play with time values on an arch that ends to a transition (I was updating an integer value to the current time, using IntInf.toInt(time())). Now, if I move the code on the outgoing arch of that transition (that is: the one that ends in a place) there is no error.

How do you get a directory listing in Red/System?

I've tried to include Kaj de Vos's excellent C library binding available in ANSI.reds, but still cannot find a way to read a directory listing.
I thought that maybe if I could read the . file in binary, I could parse it, but I just get back a NULL pointer:
sizedir: 0
dir: read-file-binary "my-dir/." :sizedir
print-line dir
If I try reading it as a text file, I get a:
*** Runtime Error 1: access violation
*** at: 0040152Eh
Any ideas?
A piece of additional code and definitions needs to be written to read the directory structure and interpret it. It's tricky, because it's partly system dependent, so it goes beyond the ANSI part of my C library binding. Also, to achieve a higher abstraction level on the way to the directory functions in REBOL, you'd have to think about extra data structures that are not native to Red/System.

Strange semantic error

I have reinstalled emacs 24.2.50 on a new linux host and started a new dotEmacs config based on magnars emacs configuration. Since I have used CEDET to some success in my previous workflow I started configuring it. However, there is some strange behaviour whenever I load a C++ source file.
[This Part Is Solved]
As expected, semantic parses all included files (and during the initial setup parses all files specified by the semantic-add-system-include variables), but it prints this an error message that goes like this:
WARNING: semantic-find-file-noselect called for /usr/include/c++/4.7/vector while in set-auto-mode for /usr/include/c++/4.7/vector. You should call the responsible function into 'mode-local-init-hook'.
In the above example the error is printed for the STL vector but a corresponding error message is printed for every file included by the one I'm visiting and any subsequent includes. As a result it takes quite a long time to finish and unfortunately the process is repeated any type I open a new buffer.
[This Problem Is Solved Too]
Furthermore it looks like the parsing doesn't really work as when I place the point above a non-c primitive type (i.e. not int,double,float, etc) instead of printing the type's definition in the modeline an error message like
Idle Service Error semantic-idle-local-symbol-highlight-idle-function: "#<buffer DEPFETResolutionAnalysis.cc> - Wrong type argument: stringp, (((0) \"IndexMap\"))"
Idle Service Error semantic-idle-summary-idle-function: "#<buffer DEPFETResolutionAnalysis.cc> - Wrong type argument: stringp, ((\"fXBetween\" 0 nil nil))"
where DEPFETResolutionAnalysis.cc is the file & buffer I'm currently editing and IndexMap and fXBetween are types defined in files included by the file I'm editing/some file included by the file I'm editing.
I have not tested any further features of CEDET/semantic as the problem is pretty annoying. My cedet config can be found here.
EDIT: With the help of Alex Ott I kinda solved the first problem. It was due to my horrible cedet initialisation. See his first answer for the proper way to configure CEDET!
There still remains the problem with the Idle Service Error (which, when enabling global-semantic-idle-local-symbol-highlight-mode, occurs permanently, not only when checking the definition of the type at point).
And there is the new problem of how to disable the site-wise init file(s).
EDIT2: I have executed semantic-debug-idle-function in a buffer where the problem occurs and it produces a ~700kb [sic!] output. It looks like it is performing some operations on a data container which, by the looks of it, contains information on all the symbols defined in the files parsed. As I have parsed a rather large package (~20Mb source files) this table is rather large. Can semantic handle a database that large or is this impossible and the reason of my problem?
EDIT3: Deleting the content of ~/.semanticdb and reparsing all includes did the trick. I still need to disable the site-wise init files but as this is not related to CEDET I will close this question (the question related to the site-wise init files can be found here).
You need to change your init file so it will perform loading of CEDET only once, not in the hook that will be called for each .h/.hpp/.c/.cpp files. You can change this config as the base, and read more in following article.
The problem that you have is caused because Semantic is trying to analyze header files, and when it tries to open them, then its initialization routines are called again, and again...
The first problem was solved by correctly configuring CEDET which is discribed on Alex Ott's homepage. His answer solves this first problem. The config file specified in his answer is a great start for a nice config; I have used the very same to config CEDET for my needs.
The second problem vanished once I updated CEDET from 1.1 to the bazaar (repository) version, which is explained here and in Alex' article. Additionaly one must delete the content of the directory ~/.semanticdb (which contains the semantic database and was corrupted I guess).
I'd like to thank Alex Ott for his help and sticking with me throughout my journey to the solution :)
