The types of errors that are caught during processing of the command definition statements include syntax errors, references to keywords and labels not defined, and missing statements. The following types of errors detected by the command definition compiler stop the command from being created (severity codes are ignored).
Even after an error that stops the command from being created is
encountered, the command definition compiler continues to check the source for
other errors. Syntax errors and fixed value errors prevent final
checking that identifies errors in user names and values or references to
keywords or labels. Checking for syntax errors and fixed value errors
does continue. This lets you see and correct as many errors as possible
before you try to create the command again. To correct errors made in
the source statements, see the ADTS for
AS/400: Screen Design Aid
book.
In the command definition source list, an error condition that relates directly to a specific source statement is listed after that command. See Command Definition Source Listing for an example of these inline messages. Messages that do not relate to a specific source statement but are more general in nature are listed in a messages section of the list, not inline with source statements.
