COBOL Manual for TNS/E Programs (H06.08+, J06.03+)

The error file is not an EDIT file; it is of type 106. You can use it only with the TACL macro FIXERRS.
For information about the FIXERRS macro, see FIXERRS Macro (page 700).
In this example, the error file is ERRORS on the default volume and subvolume:
90> COBOL85 /IN XYZ, OUT $SPX/ XYZOBJ; ERRORFILE ERRORS
90> NM ECOBOL /IN XYZ, OUT $SPX/ XYZOBJ; ERRORFILE ERRORS
If the file ERRORS does not exist, the compiler creates an entry-sequenced file of type 106 and
names it ERRORS. If ERRORS does exist, and is of type 106, the compiler replaces its contents with
the new error file. If ERRORS exists but is not of type 106, the compiler terminates with the message:
ERRORFILE not created
Symbol Table Listing
The compiler lists the symbol table if you explicitly request it with the MAP directive. The symbol
table lists, in alphabetic order, each identifier in the program. For each identifier, the listing shows:
• The group(s) of which it is a member
• The type of entity it identifies (its level number)
• The address (including possible offset) with which it is associated
• The size of the entity it identifies, if applicable
• The category of the entity it identifies (such as numeric or alphanumeric)
• The usage of the entity it identifies (such as COMPUTATIONAL or DISPLAY)
Most identifiers in a program identify data items. Example 247 shows a few lines of a symbol
table listing of the program in Example 191: INTEGER-OF-DATE Function (page 667).

Symbolic Code Listing
The compiler lists the instructions of the object program in symbolic (mnemonic) form after each
source statement if you explicitly request it with the INNERLIST directive (see Example 248).
