Chapter 10. ACIF Messages

for OS/390,

MVS,

VM, and VSE

ACIF prints a message list

at the

end of each compilation. A return

means that ACIF completed processing without any errors. ACIF supports

standard return

codes.

 

 

Notes:

1.ACIF messages contain instructions for the PSF system programmer. Ple show your system programmer these messages, because they are not

contained in the PSF messages publication.

2. Because AIX users can invoke the PSF MSG command to view or print

messages on-line, the AIX messages have not been duplicated in t

publication.

ACIF detects a number of error conditions, which can be logically gr three categories:

ŸSevere

ACIF terminates processing the current print file. The exact method termination may vary. For certain severe errors, ACIF abends with code and reason code. This is generally the case when some syst fails. In other cases, ACIF terminates with the appropriate error written to the message file specified when you invoked ACIF. Most conditions detected by ACIF fall into this category. Severe error suffix.

issues warning messages when the fidelity of

Multiple Message Scenarios

ACIF may issue more than one error message as a result of a single condition. These situations are limited to the area of parsing the example, determining the length and type of the structured field). S scenarios include:

108,

109,
