Hi

 

Is it possible to terminate a DS2 program with error? If so how?

 

I noticed that the Abort statement is not available in DS2.

 

Thanks.

I guess an ugly kludge could be to add something like this:

 if COND then do; DIV=0 ;DIV=1/DIV; end;  

This results in a general error and stops further processing.

To put an error in the log, use the log metod, e.g.:

proc ds2 ;
data _NULL_;
   dcl package logger root();
   method init();
      root.log(n'error', 'you got yhis all wrong!');
   end;
enddata;
run;
quit;

To stop execution, use STOP or whatever.

Hi

I ran your exact code from EG. Is it possible to get the Message out in  the regular job log?

26         proc ds2 ;
27         data _NULL_;
28            dcl package logger root();
29            method init();
30               root.log(n'error', 'you got yhis all wrong!');
31            end;
32         enddata;
33         run;
NOTE: Execution succeeded. No rows affected.
34         quit;
