Errors and error messages

GDDM-GKS V1R1 Programming Guide and Reference
SC33-0334-00



For each GKS function, a list is given of the principal GKS errors that can be reported as a result of incorrect use of the function. Each error has the number, and the actual text, as it appears in the GKS standard.

In addition to the errors listed for each function, the following errors can occur:


      300  Storage overflow has occurred in GKS
      301  Storage overflow has occurred in segment storage
      302  Input/Output error has occurred while reading
      303  Input/Output error has occurred while writing
      304  Input/Output error has occurred while sending data to a
           workstation
      305  Input/Output error has occurred while receiving data from a
           workstation
      306  Input/Output error has occurred during program library
           management
      307  Input/Output error has occurred while reading workstation
           description table
      308  Arithmetic error has occurred

If the standard GDDM-GKS Error logging (GERLOG) function is used, each of the GKS errors causes two messages to be written to the error file specified when GKS is opened. The first message is always ADM3500, and it contains the GKS error number, together with the name of the function in which it was detected. The second message gives a text description of the error; the numbers of these messages are in the range ADM3501 through ADM3999, and bear the following relationship to the GKS error number:

  • For GKS error numbers in the range 1 through 308, the GDDM-GKS message number is calculated by adding 3500 to the GKS error number.
  • For GKS error numbers in the range 2000 through 2003, the GDDM-GKS message number is calculated by adding 1900 to the GKS error number.
    
    
The GDDM-GKS messages are listed and further explained in the GDDM Messages book.
