SDCDE Run Options
When you run SDCDE, you can specify one of several run options through
the use of the PARM parameter of the RUN command. This parameter allows
you to control SDCDE's error handling. Using this parameter, you can
specify the exact number of errors at which the program aborts. If, for
example, two errors are acceptable, but more than two errors are not,
then specify the number 3 on the PARM parameter. An example of the RUN
command with the PARM parameter appears below:
RUN SDCDE.PUB.SYS; PARM=3
Three sets of values are accepted for the run option:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| | |
| -1 | Parse-only option. Only command syntax is checked. No dictionary or |
| | copy library is opened. |
| | |
| 0 | Execute and do not terminate regardless of the number of errors. Program |
| | continues until an EXIT command is issued. All errors are reported, but |
| | non-fatal errors do not terminate the program. This is the default |
| | option. |
| | |
| n | Terminate when n errors are detected. Syntactical, operational, and |
| | illegal response errors are counted. If a fatal error is encountered, |
| | the program may abort before the error count is reached. Positive parm |
| | values are not recognized in session mode. |
| | |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE When the program aborts due to too many errors, an error message is
issued, and the program sets the system Job Control Word (JCW) to a
value greater than or equal to FATAL.
