Configuration Command

Set the error string.

error STRING 

STRING 

A string value representing the text you want displayed as the error string. The default string is "ERROR: ".

Description

The error string appears at the beginning of each line containing error information. Receipt of such a line signals that a command has not been processed successfully. Several such lines may be issued for a given error, before the prompt is redisplayed; each line will contain the error string.

When this command is issued, the string is the rest of the command line, including white space, up to the statement terminator. This means the error string can be more than one word. To enter leading spaces or tabs, use the backslash (\) character.

Example

response to start

   start local SQL "eslsqldb"

   send "error ERROR! \n" to SQL 

 

response to line "ERROR! " from SQL

   add to ErrorWindow

      insert input

 

   make ErrorWindow visible
