Parameters
status 32-bit signed integer by reference (optional)
Passes the status of a previous HPSORT intrinsic
call that failed. The status value passed in is
used to locate the appropriate message catalog
entry associated with the status value. If no
errors or warnings were encountered during the
execution of HPSORTERRORMESS, status returns 32
bits of zero. If errors or warnings are
encountered, status is interpreted as two 16-bit
fields.
Bits (0:16) comprise status.info. A negative value
indicates an error condition, and a positive value
indicates a warning condition. Refer to the MPE/iX
Error Message Manual Volumes 1, 2 and 3
(32650-90066, 32650-90152, and 32650-90368) for a
description of its value.
Bits (16:16) comprise status.subsys. The value
represented by these bits defines the subsystem
that set the status information. The subsystem
identifier for HPSORTERRORMESS is 195.
message character array (optional)
Returns the text of the error message. This
parameter may be up to 80 characters long.
length 32-bit signed integer by reference (optional)
Returns the actual length of the message parameter
in characters.
