Run Options
When SDVPD is run, one of several run options may be specified through
use of the PARM parameter of the RUN command. This parameter allows you
to control SDVPD's error handling. Using this parameter, you may specify
the exact number of errors that may be encountered before the program is
aborted. If, for example, two errors are acceptable, but more than two
errors is not, then the PARM parameter will specify the number 3. An
example of the RUN command with the PARM parameter appears below:
RUN SDVPD.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 VPLUS forms file 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
will not terminate the program. This is the default
option.
n Terminate when n errors have been detected. Both
syntactical and operational errors are counted. If a
fatal error is encountered, the program may abort before
the error count is reached. Not recognized in session
mode.
When the program aborts due to too many errors, an error message is
issued, and the program sets the system Job Control Word to a value >=
FATAL.
