It seems to me that I have seen z/OS products (probably IBM products, but it
doesn't matter to me so long as they are "enterprise" products) that allow
the user to specify with a command "if I get error message XYZ0123E just let
it go; don't treat it as an error, don't give me a return code 8 or 12 or
whatever just because of that message." Can anyone think of any products
that do this? What's the syntax they use (if it's not a product I can look
up on the z/OS DVD)?
 
I'm adding this feature to a product I'm responsible for and I'd like to be
consistent with other products if reasonably possible, rather than
re-inventing the wheel.
 
I guess the HL assembler ACONTROL FLAG(NOxxxx) is the closest example I can
think of.
 
I'm thinking of a syntax something like IGNORE
MSG(XYZ0123E,XYZ0456W,XYZ0789W)
 
Do I have to say why I'm doing this? One customer wants to be notified when
condition X occurs; another customer doesn't want condition X to spoil his
precious zero return code. ¿Comprende?
 
Thanks,
