DSNTIAR and DSNTIAC

Syntax

CALL 'DSNTIAR' USING comm-area 
                     error-message 
                     error-rec-length

or, for CICS applications:

CALL 'DSNTIAC' USING comm-area 
                     error-message 
                     error-rec-length

Parameters

comm-area

The program's Commarea, usually SQLCA. At run time, the SQLCODE field in the SQLCA structure should contain the code from which DSNTIAR/DSNTIAC generates the character-string message.

error-message

An array of records of size error-rec-length used to store error message output. The two components of the error-message array are:

error-length

Containing an integer greater than or equal to 240, indicating the length of the second element, error-text.

error-text

Containing the text of the message. Generally this message is defined as an array of strings, each having a length of error-rec-length, and occurring n times so that error-length is the larger of 240 and error-rec-length * n.

error-rec-length

An integer between 71 and 241, indicating the logical record length of output messages. If the error-message length exceeds the length defined for error-rec-length, the message is stored in several logical records.

Return Codes

The following table shows the return codes that result from calling the DSNTIAR or DSNTIAC utility.

Code	Description
0	Successful execution.
4	More data is available than can fit into the provided message area.
8	The error record length is not within acceptable limits, i.e., 72 <= `error-rec-length` <= 240.
12	The message area was not large enough. Message length was >= 240.
16	Error in message routine.

Example

01 ERROR-MESSAGE. 
     02 ERROR-LENGTH PIC S9(4) COMP VALUE +288. 
     02 ERROR-TEXT PIC X(72) OCCURS 4 TIMES. 
 77 ERROR-REC-LENGTH PIC S9(9) COMP VALUE +72.
