ALLOW The ALLOW command specifies the maximum number of warnings or errors that may
occur during execution of an OBEY file or an IN file. If either value is exceeded,
DNSCOM halts execution of the OBEY file or IN file.
The syntax of the ALLOW command is as follows:
ALLOW [ ALL ] [ ERRORS ]
[ NO ] [ WARNINGS ]
[ count ]
count
is an integer specifying the number of errors or warnings permitted during the
execution of an IN file or command file.
Examples
ALLOW
ALLOW ALL
ALLOW 5 ERRORS
ALLOW NO WARNINGS
Considerations
If the ALLOW command is not used or is entered with no parameters, the default
setting is NO ERRORS and ALL WARNINGS.
If ERRORS or WARNINGS is specified, but ALL, NO, and count are omitted, ALL is
assumed.
If ALL, NO, or count is specified, but ERRORS and WARNINGS are omitted, ERRORS
is assumed.
