In these dictionaries, each function or routine is followed by an alphabetical listing of the operators that are used with it. For each operator, the statement syntax, other argument definitions, and notes about using the function or routine, operating states, and return codes are provided. Operating states are summarized in Operating States.
The syntax for all of the functions and routines contains the argument return-code-variable. This argument must be a numeric variable name and can be a different variable name for each function or routine.
The return-code-variable argument is used to debug DSGI programs. It contains the return code of the function or routine call. If the return code is any value other than 0, the function or routine did not execute properly.
Each function or routine has a different set of possible return codes. The return codes are listed in the heading for the routine. Refer to Return Codes for DSGI Routines and Functions for an explanation of the return codes.
