            I16V

   QUITPROG(num);

num

16-bit signed integer by value (required)

Passes any integer value in the range 0..16383. When executed, num is output as part of the abort message.

Aborts the entire user process structure (all children of the job/session main process) by:

Transmitting an abort message to the list device of the job/session main process.
Setting the job/session job control word (JCW) to indicate that the program terminated in an error state.
Deleting all descendants of the job/session main process (the entire user program structure). 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 terminates the job.

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