Error Classes:
01 Out of resource. Example: Out of space
or out of channals.
02 Temporary situation. Something expected to
disappear with time. This is not an error
condition, but a temporary situation such
as a locked file.
03 Authorization: Permission problem
04 Internal: Internal error in system software.
Probable problem with system software, rather
than a user a system failure.
05 Hardware failure: A serious problem not
the fault of user program.
06 System failure. Serious failure of system
software not the fault of the user, such as
missing or incorrect configuration files.
07 Application program error: Inconsistent
requests.
08 Not found: File or item not found.
09 Bad format: File or value invalid format or
type; unsuitable.
0A Locked: Locked file or item
0B Media error: Media failure such as incorrent
disk, CRC error, defective media.
0C Already exists: Duplication error, such as
declaring a macinename that already exists.
0D Unknown
Suggested Action:
01 Retry. Retry a few times, then prompt the user
if the program should be terminated.
02 Delayed retry: Retry several time, with delay
in between, then prompt the user if the program
should be terminated.
03 Prompt user. Ask the user to correct the infor-
mation.
04 Abort after cleanup. DOS is in a orderly state,
so it's safe to cleanup, before termination.
05 Immediate abort. Stop application immidiately,
without clearing regsiters or anything else.
Don't write to or close any files, just abort
the program (this is serious)!
06 Ignore
07 Retry after user intervention. Ask the user to
perform some action, such as inserting a disk
etc. Then retry the operation.
Error Locus:
01 Unknown or not appropriate
02 Block device
03 Network related
04 Serial device
05 Memory related
