RPG Errors
RPG errors are detected and reported by compiler-generated code. You can
specify in the program what action to take when an error occurs. You can
redirect or suppress the error action. To do this, enter the appropriate
values in both of these Header Specification fields:
1. The Error Log Field (column 55).
2. The Error Response Field (columns 56-71).
The messages listed in this appendix explain the cause of the RPG error
and the action you must take to correct it. In addition to the
"Message", "Cause" and "Action" fields, the three additional fields shown
below are listed for each error:
* ERROR RESPONSE COLUMN
This is the column number (56-71) in the Error Response Field that
corresponds to the error.
* *ERROR
This is the predefined, one-character field where RPG saves a
unique letter code for the error. When you enter 0 or 1 in the
Error Response Field, you can check the contents of *ERROR using
Calculation Specifications.
* ERROR RESPONSE ENTRIES
This field lists the values that you can enter in the Error
Response Field.
