NM and CM callable.

Aborts the calling process.

Syntax

        I16V

   QUIT(num);

Parameters

num

16-bit signed integer by value (required)

   ABORT: PIN = pin: by QUIT; PARM = num

   PROGRAM TERMINATED IN AN ERROR STATE

Operation Notes

Aborts the calling process by:

  • Transmitting an abort message to the list device of the calling process.

  • Setting the job/session job control word (JCW) to indicate that the program terminated in an error state.

  • Deleting the calling process and all of its descendants. All resources held by the deleted processes are released. Any remaining files opened by the deleted processes are closed and assigned the same disposition they had when opened.

In batch jobs, not using the CONTINUE command results in job termination.

This intrinsic affects the system job control word (JCW).
