DosError
Bindings: C, MASM
This call allows an OS/2 process to receive hard error notification
without generating a hard error signal.
DosError (Flag)
Flags (USHORT) - input
Bit field, defined in the following example (the unused high-order
bits are reserved and must be set to zero).
Bit Description
15-2 Reserved, set to zero.
1 0 = Enable exception popups.
1 = Disable exception popups.
0 0 = Disable hard error popups (fail requests).
1 = Enable hard error popups.
rc (USHORT) - return
Return code descriptions are:
0 NO_ERROR
87 ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER
Remarks
DosError allows an OS/2 process to disable user notification if a program
(or untrapped numeric processor) exception occurs. If end user
notification is disabled, and if one of these exceptions occurs, the
process is terminated.
Hard errors generated under a process that has issued a DosError call are
failed, and the appropriate error code is returned. The default
situation is both hard error pop-ups and exception pop-ups are enabled,
if DosError is not issued.
Family API Considerations
Some options operate differently in the DOS mode than in the OS/2 mode.
Therefore, the following restriction applies to DosError when coding for
the DOS mode:
For Flag, a value of 0000 causes all subsequent INT 24s to be failed
until a subsequent call with a value of 1 is issued.
Note: Since INT 24 is not issued in DOS mode, this call has no effect
when running in DOS mode.
