6.23 Run-Time Library (LIB$)—LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL Signals
Warning for Modules with Compilation Errors
V7.1
LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL may signal a warning (LIB$_EOMWARN) to
indicate that the image being activated contains modules that had compilation
warnings. A condition handler used with LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL should
probably handle this as a special case.
To allow LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL to continue execution after signaling
LIB$_EOMWARN, the condition handler should exit with SS$_CONTINUE. For
this reason, you may choose not to use LIB$SIG_TO_RET as a condition handler
for LIB$FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL.
