Builtin NetRexxmethods, when applied to Java Strings

ThSITC
Even worse.

When a *builtin NetRexx* method, as 'upper', for instance, is applied to
a 'Java String', it is, after changing to *options binary*, no longer
compilable at all.

As alread suggested to MFC (years ago), the solution would be:

a) when the original code (with options NOBINARY, the default)
does contain:

     a = ''  (a String, might it be Rexx and/or Java)

b) and, in the sequence of actions, the statement:

    a=a.upper()

THEN:

When changing from OPTIONS NOBINARY is changed to OPTIONS BINARY:

    a = Rexx(a).upper()

should be generated....

Every other solution is annoying!
