datatype class %Library.Status

ODBC Type: VARCHAR

The %Status data type class is used to represent an error status code.

Many of the methods provided by the system classes return error status information using the %Status data type. The include file %occStatus.INC contains several macro definitions that are useful in testing the value of an error code in %Status format. These macros include:

• $$$ISOK(status:%Status) returns true (1) if the status code status does not represent an error condition.
• $$$ISERR(status:%Status) returns true (1) if the status code status represents an error condition.

You can get a more detailed description of an error by using $system.Status.DecomposeStatus(status:%Status,&err,flag), which takes a status code and returns an array of error strings; see %SYSTEM.Status.

For example:

	Set status=obj.%Save()
	If $$$ISERR(status) Do $system.Status.DecomposeStatus(status,.err,"-d")
	For i=1:1:err Write err(i),!
