COBCH1841 class-name does not implement get accessor for indexer indexer-signature of abstract class abstract-class-name
The non-abstract class specified is declared as inheriting an abstract class including an abstract indexer with a getter, and that getter is not overridden by the class.
COBCH1842 class-name does not implement set accessor for indexer indexer-signature of abstract class abstract-class-name
The non-abstract class specified is declared as inheriting an abstract class including an abstract indexer with a setter, and that setter is not overridden by the class.
COBCH1843 keyword not allowed with properties and indexers
The specified keyword is not allowed when defining a property or indexer.

The visibility attributes of the specified class indicate that it cannot be used in the current context.
COBCH1845 Illegal combination of CONSTRAIN phrases
The program contains a CONSTRAIN syntax for a generic parameter, but the CONTRAIN syntax uses an illegal combination of phrases.
COBCH1846 name is not a generic parameter for this type or method
The specified name is not a generic parameter for this type.
COBCH1847 Could not find main method method-name
The specified static method name or procedural COBOL program name was not found.
COBCH1850 Only permitted default value is NULL
The program specifies a default value other than NULL for a parameter of type object. NULL is the only allowable value.
COBCH1851 keyword not allowed with operators
The program contains the specified keyword when declaring an operator. This is not allowed.
COBCH1852 Operators must specify a RETURNING item

COBCH1854 Cannot ACCEPT a floating-point operand with extended ACCEPT/DISPLAY
The program contains a floating point operand in an ACCEPT statement using extended accept/display syntax. This is not allowed.
COBCH1855 SYNC statement cannot specify a value type
The program contains a SYNC statement that refers to a reference type instead of a value type. This is not allowed.
COBCH1856 Generic method cannot include out-of-line PERFORM
The program contains a generic method that uses an out-of-line PERFORM statement. This is not allowed; however a generic method can use an inline PERFORM statement.
COBCH1857 Cannot specify implicit and explicit conversions with same source and target types
The program contains either an explicit or an implicit conversion operator with the same source and target type. Neither of these are allowed.
COBCH1858 Preceding TRY block includes EXIT ITERATOR - CATCH not allowed

COBCH1859 Cannot have EXIT ITERATOR inside CATCH or FINALLY block
The program contains an iterator that includes a TRY or FINALLY block with an EXIT ITERATOR statement. This is not allowed.
COBCH1860 LENGTH OF not supported - use SIZE OF with single dimensional managed arrays, strings or collections
the LENGTH OF operator is not allowed with object types.
COBCH1861 CURRENCY SIGN IS clause is not supported in combination with NATIONAL NUMERIC edited item
COBCH1862 NLS-CURRENCY-LENGTH directive is not supported in combination with NATIONAL NUMERIC edited item
COBCH1863 ILSMARTLINKAGE cannot be used with complex variable length groups, which do not contain the OCCURS DEPENDING ON item
The program contains ILSMARTLINKAGE that uses a complex variable-length group (this could be a group containing multiple OCCURS DEPENDING ON items, or in which the OCCURS DEPENDING ITEM is not the last item at its level within the group), and the object of the OCCURS DEPENDING ON is not itself part of the group, and when the program is compiled with the ODOSLIDE directive. This is not allowed.
COBCH1864 Directive NORTKEY is for native COBOL only
COBCH1865 Cannot use object references in FILE SECTION
The program declares an object reference in the file section. This is not allowed when compiling for .NET COBOL code.
COBCH1866 Directive directive-name not supported in .NET COBOL code
The program has been compiled for .NET COBOL code and includes the specified directive, which is not supported in .NET COBOL code.
COBCH1867 ROUNDED not allowed with operands of this type
The program contains a ROUNDED phrase used as a target of an inappropriate type, for example, a target defined as of type decimal.
COBCH1868 ALLOCATE RETURNING phrase required
COBCH1869 XML PARSE processing procedure may execute STOP RUN, GOBACK or EXIT PROGRAM
The program contains an XML PARSE statement whose processing procedure includes, STOP RUN, GOBACK or EXIT PROGRAM. These are not allowed.
COBCH1870 Cannot use XML PARSE in programs with non-standard PERFORM logic
The program contains an XML PARSE statement that uses a PERFORMTYPE other than ANSI where a non-standard PERFORM, such as a recursive PERFORM, is present. This is not allowed when compiled to .NET COBOL code.
COBCH1871 OPTIONAL may only be specified in prototype definitions - ignored
COBCH1872 AS IF can only be used with a reference type or a nullable type
The program contains an AS IF operator that targets a type for which no null value is available. This is not allowed. The AS IF operator can only be used to target types for which a suitable null value is available, meaning reference types or nullable value types.
COBCH1873 Nested COPY REPLACING not supported
The program includes a copy file that has been copied in using a COPY REPLACING statement that itself contains another COPY REPLACING. This is not allowed when compiling for an IBM dialect.
COBCH1874 Data item or typedef has same name as existing typedef data-name
The program contains an existing typedef name used as the name of a new data item. This is not allowed.
COBCH1876 Could not find .NET framework library 'mscorlib'
COBCH1877 Invalid use of BASED clause
COBCH1878 Not allowed with ASYNC-VOID methods
The program contains an illegal phrase used with an ASYNC-VOID method.
