|
|
code parameter</h4><p>The common error shown in the following example is
|
|
the use of the error code structure to indicate to the API not to send exception
|
|
messages for errors found. Additionally, the example does not examine the
|
|
error code structure to determine if the API call was successful or not. To
|
|
demonstrate the improper use of the error code structure, an incorrect value
|
|
is used on the replace parameter of the QUSCRTUS API. The replace parameter
|
|
is a required parameter. The coded error (*XXXXXXX) is shown at location <a href="#pgmerr_errorco__SPTRK2A">(1)</a> in the incorrect and also at location <a href="#pgmerr_errorco__SPTRK2B">(2)</a> in the correct coding.</p>
|
|
<p>Both
|
|
the incorrect <a href="#pgmerr_errorco__SPTRK1A">(3)</a> and correct
|
|
coding <a href="#pgmerr_errorco__SPTRK1B">(4)</a> show the program monitoring
|
|
for any error from the call to the API. However, the program does not examine
|
|
the bytes available field after calling the QUSCRTUS API.</p>
|
|
<p>Because of
|
|
the error on the replace parameter, the requested user space is not created.
|
|
The calling program, however, is not aware of this as shown at <a href="#pgmerr_errorco__SPTRK3A">(5)</a>.</p>
