return-code

The return code. This must be a valid IDF expression. If omitted, the command line is checked for an expression and if a valid expression is found its value is used as the return code. If omitted and the command line is empty, the current content of the target program's R15 is used as the return code.

Intended for use by macros, but can also be issued from the command line if desired.

Return codes

If an invalid expression is provided, either as part of the command or on the command line, RC=5 is returned to the invoking macro and processing is ended.

If the RCQUIT command completes successfully, a return code of 0 is passed to the issuing macro. When the macro exits, IDF returns to CMS, z/OS, or z/VSE and passes the specified return code.
