Multiple message scenarios

ACIF can issue more than one error message as a result of a single error condition. These situations are limited to the area of parsing the structured field (for example, determining the length and type of the structured field). Some possible scenarios include these message numbers:

  • 105, 108, 109, 103
  • 105, 108, 110, 103
  • 106, 108, 109, 103
  • 106, 108, 110, 103

Any subset of the listed message numbers is also possible, provided that you start with the first one (for example, 105, 108, 109 or 105, 108, or 105, 110). The first message accurately describes the error condition; any subsequent messages provide more information. Additional error messages might not always be accurate.

Message number 101 can occur after many error conditions because ACIF attempts to locate the end of the resource that contains the error as part of its recovery procedure.
