Sources of Run-Time Diagnostic Messages
For TNS HP COBOL programs, the sources of run-time diagnostic messages are:
The COBOL85 run-time library (if the COBOL85 process is running in the non-CRE
environment)
The CRE (if the COBOL85 process is running in the CRE)
For TNS/R HP COBOL programs, run-time diagnostic messages are from the CRE.
Where Messages Are Reported
If an EXECUTION-LOG parameter is currently defined, run-time diagnostic messages
are reported to the destination that the EXECUTION-LOG parameter specifies (see
PARAM Command); otherwise, they are delivered to the home terminal of the process.
