Error Messages
Cause. A character constant or Hollerith constant exceeds 255 characters in length.
Recovery. Shorten the constant.
Cause. A function subprogram includes one or more ENTRY statements and the
function name and the entry names are not all character type or are not all
noncharacter types.
Recovery. Declare all entries character type or all entries noncharacter types.
Cause. A HIGHCOMMON compiler directive has forced a common block that contains
character data into the upper half of the user data segment. The upper half of the user
data segment is not byte addressable.
Recovery. Correct the directive.
Cause. The indicated common block contains character type and noncharacter type
entities. You can mix character type data and noncharacter type data only in a
RECORD.
Recovery. Segregate entities of character and noncharacter data types into different
common blocks or make the entire common block a RECORD. If you choose the latter,
you must also change all references to those entities throughout the program, so that
they are qualified by the name of the RECORD.
Cause. An EQUIVALENCE statement names an entity of character type and an entity
of a noncharacter data type in the same equivalence class. This is permitted only when
the entities are within a RECORD.
Recovery. Correct the EQUIVALENCE statement.
CHARACTER CONSTANT TOO LARGE
CHARACTER ENTRY MIXED WITH OTHER TYPES
CHARACTER ITEM IN HIGH COMMON ** block-name
CHARACTER TYPE MIXING NOT ALLOWED IN COMMON ** name
CHARACTER TYPE MIXING NOT ALLOWED IN EQUIVALENCE
