Appendix B  Run-Time Messages 

This chapter lists the errors that you may encounter when running an RPG
program.  There are four types of errors.  They are summarized below and
are listed (except for TurboIMAGE errors) in the same order in this
appendix:

   *   RPG errors

       These errors are detected and reported by compiler-generated code.
       They are displayed on the operator's console (for batch jobs) or
       on the terminal (for interactive sessions).  The program then
       pauses while the operator decides what action to take.  The
       operator can:

          1.  Continue processing.
          2.  Skip the error record and continue processing.
          3.  Terminate the program.

   *   TurboIMAGE-detected errors

       These errors are detected by the TurboIMAGE Subsystem.  See the
       TurboIMAGE/iX Database Management System manual for an explanation
       of these errors.

   *   USWITCH command errors

       These errors may occur when you enter an F in the USWITCH Source
       Field (column 16) of the Header Specification.  Errors in USWITCH
       records may terminate the program.

   *   BUFCHK errors

       These errors may occur when you enter BUFCHK in the Option Type
       Field (columns 54-59) of a File Description Continuation line.
