C TEMPLI Errors and Warnings
TEMPLI produces two types of diagnostic messages:
•
Warning messages—describe minor errors or ambiguities to help identify potential
trouble.
•
Error messages—describe serious problems that must be corrected before
TEMPLI can produce resident and nonresident template files.
The error processing of TEMPLI is similar to that of the Template Compiler.
When appropriate, a circumflex (^) indicates the approximate position of the problem
by marking the furthest position within the command line that TEMPLI has processed.
This occurs infrequently in TEMPLI, however, because most errors or warnings occur
in files specified by the command line rather than in the command line itself.
To identify a file, TEMPLI appends an extra line to an error or warning message:
File: file-info
The particular form of file-info depends on the context but is one of:
•
File: file-name
If you did not use a DEFINE name, TEMPLI uses the form with the Guardian file
name only.
•
File: DEFINE-name
If you used a DEFINE name and TEMPLI cannot determine the Guardian file
name, TEMPLI uses the form with the DEFINE name only.
•
File: DEFINE-name (file-name)
If you used a DEFINE name and TEMPLI can determine the Guardian file name,
TEMPLI uses the form with both names.
For file errors that occur too rarely to warrant their own text messages, TEMPLI
includes the file-system error number on the line with the file information:
Err: filesys-errnum File: file-info
These errors are not described in this manual:
•
File-system errors
•
Sequential I/O errors, which occur for the listing (OUT) file
For descriptions of these errors, see the Guardian Procedure Errors and Messages
Manual .
For descriptions of the Guardian procedures referred to in certain error messages, see
