RXS_Throw()

This subprocedure can be used to throw an error. The error information is populated into a data structure which is then passed to RXS_Throw. The error can be caught by RXS_Catch().

D   MessageText               4096A   Varying

D   ThrowToCaller...
D                                 N   Inz(RXS_NO)

Set to RXS_YES when you want the error sent to the program that called the program which is throwing the error. By default, the program throwing the error will be the target of the error.

Valid Values:

  • RXS_YES
  • RXS_NO

Default Value: RXS_NO
