CHAPTER 4. Precompiler Messages

This chapter lists messages that might occur when running the Oracle Precompilers. Also listed are messages that the Oracle runtime library might return to the SQLCA. For each message, the probable cause and corrective action are given. The Oracle Precompilers issue various warning and error messages. For example, the following message code and message statement might appear:

PCC-U-00036: No input file name specified 

The message code consists of a prefix, severity code, and sequence number. The prefix PCC shows that the message was generated by an Oracle Precompiler. There are four severity codes. The following table gives their meanings:

Code Meaning
W Warning--despite an error, a compilable output file was created.
S Severe error--despite an error, an output file was created. However, it might not be compilable.
F Fatal error--no output file was created because of an internal problem or because a resource (such as memory) was unavailable or ran out.
U Unrecoverable error--no output file was created because an input requirement was not met.
I Information only--no error or warning was encountered. Information messages are used only for FIPS flagging.
