Abnormal conversation termination

Several different events can lead to the abnormal termination of a conversation.

A conversation is abnormally terminated if any one of the following events occur:
  • The conversational application program abnormally terminates.
  • An invalid destination is recognized in the input system or in the remote system (for a conversation response, a program-to-program switch, or in the SPA).
  • A conversational message is inserted into a terminal whose conversation was terminated.
  • Destination verification fails for a conversational message.
  • No output was generated in the application program.

The conversation's SPA (along with an indication of the cause of termination) is passed to the Conversation Abnormal Termination exit routine in the input system.
