DEBUGFLAGS

This dynamic parameter is bit encoded, and is used to set multiple configuration

controls.

Debug^error^trap

Debug^error^trap is used to indicate a file error number, which when detected by

TSCODE will cause TSCODE to take one of two actions:

•

Invoke DEBUG, which is done in case uscode^debug^flag is set to 1

•

Send a warning message with the file error number to the home terminal, in case

uscode^debug^flag is set to 0

If you want TSCODE to trap file errors with numbers greater than 255, use the

TRAPERROR configuration parameter with uscode^debug^flag.

Bounds^checking

Bounds^checking is used to indicate whether TSCODE is to do bounds checking on

buffers used during USCODE service routine calls (pseudo and utility procedures). If

this flag is set to 1, TSCODE ensures that all buffers used for I/O are in global or

extended memory, not in the swappable stack. If this flag is set to 0, TSCODE does not

check the location of the buffers used. See also the description of the

CHECK^BUFFER^BOUNDS utility procedure in Section 8.

Auto^trace^flag

Auto^trace^flag is used to turn on the trace facility at startup. With this flag set,

TSCODE traces all significant events.

Uscode^debug^flag

Uscode^debug^flag is used to indicate what action is to be taken if a fault or a user-

specified file error is detected by TSCODE. If this flag is set to 1, and if TSCODE

detects a fault or a file error specified in debug^error^trap (bits 0-7) or in the

TRAPERROR configuration parameter, then TSCODE calls DEBUG. If this flag is set
