Error description

• GML TAGS WHICH END LISTS (:ESL, :EOL, :EUL) ALWAYS END THE
  CURRENTLY ACTIVE LIST, EVEN IF IT IS OF A DIFFERENT TYPE FROM
  THE END TAG.  FOR EXAMPLE, IF A SIMPLE LIST IS CURRENTLY ACTIVE
  AND THE NEXT END LIST TAG IS :EUL, THE SIMPLE LIST IS ENDED AND
  NO MESSAGE IS ISSUED TO INDICATE THIS CODING ERROR.  IF A USER
  INADVERTENTLY FAILS TO END A LIST AND THIS OPEN LIST IS DETECTED
  BY A HEADING OR SECTION TAG.  MESSAGE DSMGML003W IS ISSUED, AND
  THE LIST IS ENDED.  THE TEXT OF THIS MESSAGE MAY BE CONFUSING IF
  THE OMITTED END TAG IS FOR A DIFFERENT TYPE OF LIST THAN THE
  LIST WHICH WAS ACTUALLY ENDED.

  ****************************************************************
  ALL TAGS THAT END LISTS (:ESL, :EOL, :EUL, :EDL, :EGL) WILL END
  THE CURRENTLY ACTIVE LIST, EVEN IF THE LIST IS OF A DIFFERENT
  TYPE THAN THE END TAG.  NO ERROR MESSAGE IS ISSUED TO INDICATE
  THAT A MISMATCH OCCURRED BETWEEN THE CURRENTLY ACTIVE LIST AND
  THE TAG USED TO END THAT LIST.
  

Problem conclusion

• MACROS DSMELIST AND DSM#RSET WILL BE CHANGED TO ISSUE WARNING
  MESSAGE DSMGML003W WHEN A MISMATCH EXISTS BETWEEN THE CURRENT
  LIST TYPE AND THE TYPE OF THE LIST END-TAG.  AS BEFORE, THE
  CURRENT LIST WILL BE ENDED.  IN ADDITION, THE DESCRIPTION OF
  THE DSMELIST MACRO IN THE DCF:GML STARTER SET IMPLEMENTATION
  GUIDE (SH35005001) WILL BE CHANGED TO REFLECT THE ERROR
  CHECKING PROCEDURE.  THE FOLLOWING SECTION WILL BE ADDED
  BETWEEN NOTES 1 AND 2 ON PAGE 107:
       CHECKS TO SEE IF THE CURRENT LIST TYPE (&@LTYPE) MATCHES
       THE TYPE OF THE LIST END-TAG (&$GML).  IF A MISMATCH
       EXISTS, ISSUE A WARNING MESSAGE AND CONTINUE PROCESSING
       DSMELIST.  IF DSMELIST WAS CALLED BY DSM#RSET (/&1 EQ
       /RSET), SKIP THE ERROR MESSAGE SINCE ONE HAS ALREADY
       BEEN ISSUED BY DSM#RSET.
  THE LISTINGS FOR MACROS DSMELIST AND DSM#RSET IN APPENDIX C OF
  THE DCF : GML STARTER SET IMPLEMENTATION GUIDE WILL BE UPDATED
  TO INCLUDE THE CHANGES TO THESE MACROS.
