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?

No rows affected. 34 quit; NOTE: PROCEDURE DS2 used (Total process time): real time 1.73 seconds cpu time 0.09 seconds
