The following table lists the error number, message, cause, and user
corrective action for status returns from the HPSORT intrinsics.
---------------------------------------------------------------
1 MESSAGE If you specified the keycompare parameter, you
can not specify the keys and numkeys parameters.
CAUSE You specified the keycompare and the keys and
numkeys parameters in the HPSORTINIT intrinsic.
ACTION Specify the keycompare parameter or else specify
the keys and numkeys parameters in HPSORTINIT.
---------------------------------------------------------------
2 MESSAGE If you do not specify the keycompare parameter,
you must specify the keys and numkeys parameters.
CAUSE You specified neither the keycompare parameter or
the keys and numkeys parameters in the HPSORTINIT
intrinsic.
ACTION Specify either the keycompare parameter or specify
the keys and numkeys parameters in the HPSORTINIT
intrinsic.
---------------------------------------------------------------
3 MESSAGE You did not specify a reclength parameter, or you
specified it less than or equal to 0.

HPSORTINIT intrinsic to be less than or equal to 0.
or you did not specify an inputfile or use
HPSORTINPUT.
ACTION Set the reclength parameter to a value that is
greater than 7 or specify the inputfiles parameter
use the HPSORTINPUT intrinsic.
---------------------------------------------------------------
4 MESSAGE You must not specify the keycompare parameter if
you specified the outputoption parameter as greater
than 1.
