Section 7
CONWRD$–Condition Word Routine
The CONWRD$ routine manipulates bits 7 and 8 of the condition word (bit 0 is the
leftmost bit of the word). These bits indicate whether a task completed successfully or
unsuccessfully, and are defined as follows:
Bit 7 If set, one or more previous tasks had an error.
Bit 8 If set, the most recent task had an error.
See the Exec ER Programming Reference Manual for details on the condition word. The
EXEC extensions to ER SETC$ and @SETC that use bits 7 and 8 of the condition word
are in level 38R2 and higher levels.
CONWRD$ can be called from both MASM or PLUS routines. CONWRD$ is available as
a relocatable element in the SYSLIB file (SYS$LIB$*SYSLIB) or SYS$*RLIB$ and also in
the SYSLIB common bank SYSLIB$1. The relocatable and common bank entry points to
CONWRD$ are listed in Appendix E.
7.1. MASM Interface
CONWRD$ is called with the MASM PROC C$ONWRD. This PROC can call CONWRD$
as a relocatable element, a common bank element, or a common bank element using
the Auto Switch method.
CONWRD$ does not return any parameters or status codes to the caller.
