ABORT Statement

The general form of the ABORT statement is as follows:

ABORT ;

The ABORT statement stops execution and exits from IML much like a QUIT statement, except that the ABORT statement is executable and programmable. For example, you might want to exit IML if a certain error occurs. You can check for the error in a module and program an ABORT statement to execute if the error occurs. The ABORT statement does not execute until the module is executed, while the QUIT statement executes immediately and ends the IML session.
