Runtime Error Table
The Runtime Error Message Table includes an entry for each runtime error message. Each table entry includes the following information:
- Message type— a message number is not found in the table, or when you return to a transaction screen after a fatal error or a Dialog Manager error occurs. Valid message types are shown in the following list:
- Default message— a message number is not found in the table, or when you return to a transaction screen after a fatal error or a Dialog Manager error occurs.
- Dialog Manager error—Occurs when the Dialog Manager is unable to communicate with the system. This is a fatal error beyond the control of CA Gen. An error in the load module packaging or in the configuration specifications causes a Dialog Manager error. Error handling is the same as for a fatal error.
- Fatal error— a CA Gen application abnormal program ending. If a condition occurs at runtime that the generated code cannot handle, the system issues a fatal error. An error message screen displays the appropriate error messages.
- Function error—Occurs if a CA Gen-supported function receives invalid input or produces invalid output. CA Gen-supplied functions manipulate characters, numbers, dates, and times.
- Screen edit error—A non-fatal error that occurs when an input or output value for a field does not match the expected value, the range, type, or format defined for the field during model development. This type of message is displayed on your transaction screen. You can correct the error and continue with the transaction.
- Unformatted input error—Occurs when the unformatted input contains invalid parameters, delimiters, or both. Unformatted input is a list of parameters associated with a clear screen transaction code.
- Message number—Each message has a unique number that is permanently assigned by CA Gen.
- Message text—The message text consists of the actual words that appear on the application screen when an error occurs. Because of the length of the message identifier, the message text is limited to 68 characters for an 80‑character screen. The message text and appended variables are truncated if they exceed the length of the error message line defined for the application screen.
- Suffix—(If applicable) The suffix contains variable values, such as return codes, permitted values, or the values in error.
