<h1 class="topictitle1">Error code parameter</h1>
|
||
|
<div><p>An API error code parameter is a variable-length structure that
|
||
|
is common to all of the system APIs.</p>
|
||
|
<div class="section"><p>The error code parameter controls how errors are returned to the
|
||
|
application. The parameter must be initialized before the program calls the
|
||
|
API. Depending on how the error code structure is set, this parameter either
|
||
|
returns information associated with an error condition or causes errors to
|
||
|
be returned as exception messages.</p>
|
||
|
<p>For some APIs, the error code parameter
|
||
|
is optional. If you do not code the optional error code parameter, the API
|
||
|
returns diagnostic and escape messages. If you code the optional error code
|
||
|
parameter, the API can either signal exceptions or return the exception information
|
||
|
in the error code parameter.</p>

|

|
Most iSeries™ APIs
|
||
|
include an error code parameter to return error codes and exception data to
|
||
|
the application. The error code parameter can be one of two variable-length
|
||
|
structures, format ERRC0100 or format ERRC0200.</li>
|
||
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="errorexceptions.htm">Examples: Receiving error conditions</a></strong><br />

These examples illustrate receiving error conditions</li>
|
||
|
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="errorjoblog.htm">Using the job log to diagnose API errors</a></strong><br />
|
||
|
Sometimes an API may issue one or more messages that state that the API failed, and the messages may direct you to see the previously listed messages in the job log. If your application program needs to determine the cause of the error message, you can use the Receive Message (RCVMSG) command or the Receive Message APIs to receive the messages that explain the reason for the error.</li>
