EXIT_CALL_RESULT

EXIT_CALL_RESULT is set by the user exit routines and tells the caller how to respond when each exit call completes. The following results can be specified by the operator’s routines.

Result	Description
EXIT_ABEND_VAL	Instructs the caller to ABEND immediately.
EXIT_IGNORE_VAL	Reject records for further processing. IGNORE is appropriate when the exit performs all the desired processing on a record and there is no desire to output or replicate it.
EXIT_OK_VAL	If the routine does nothing to respond to an event, OK is assumed. If the call specified PROCESS-RECORD or DISCARD-RECORD and OK is returned, the caller processes the record buffer returned by the user exit and uses the parameters set by the exit (see the EXIT-REC-BUF parameter for details).
EXIT_STOP_VAL	Instructs the caller to STOP immediately. STOP or ABEND may be appropriate when an error condition occurs in your program, such as a file error.
