Warning Messages The following messages indicate conditions that might affect program compilation or

execution. If you get any warning messages, check your code carefully to determine

whether you need to make corrections.

0 All index registers are reserved

Three index registers are already reserved by USE statements. Three is the maximum

number of index registers that you can reserve. The compiler assigned the last

identifier to an already allocated index register.

1 Identifier exceeds 31 characters in length

An identifier in the current source line is longer than 31 characters, the maximum

allowed for an identifier. The compiler ignores all excess characters. Make sure the

shortened identifier is still unique within its scope.

2 Illegal option syntax

An incorrect compiler directive option appears. The compiler ignores the option. If

omitting the option adversely affects the program, specify the correct option.

3 Initialization list exceeds space allocated

An initialization list contains more values or characters than can be contained by the

variable being initialized. The compiler ignores the excess items. If omitting the

excess values adversely affects the program, declare a variable large enough to hold

the values.

4 P-relative array passed as reference parameter

A procedure call passed the address of a read-only array to a procedure. Make sure

the procedure takes explicit action to use the address properly.

5 PEP size estimate was too small

Your PEP estimate (in the PEP directive) is not large enough to contain all the entries

required. BINSERV has allocated appropriate additional space.
