HP-UX SNAplus2 CSV Programmer's Guide

Common Service Verbs Reference
LOG_MESSAGE (HP-UX Systems Only)
Chapter 2 69
Specify a string that identifies the user of this message file; for example,
the name of the application if only one application uses this message file,
or a string identifying a group of applications that use the same message
file.
The rest of the message source file consists of entries for individual
messages. Each message is defined as a series of fields, as shown in the
example that follows.
ID:MYAPPL
Message: 1
Type: PROBLEM
Cause Type: CSV
Cause: The specified file could not be opened.
Action: Check the reason shown on this message for more information.
Flags: NONE
String: Could not open the file.$
Filename = %1\nReason = %2
The fields are as follows:
Message A unique identifier for the message (a decimal number
in the range 165,535). The messages in the file must
be listed in ascending order of message number.
Numbers do not need to be consecutive; however, large
ranges of unused message numbers will increase the
size of the message file.
Type The category of log message. Specify PROBLEM,
EXCEPTION, or AUDIT. The actual category that
SNAplus2 uses when logging the message is
determined by the
msg_act
parameter of the
LOG_MESSAGE verb. In the source file, this
information is included for readability, but SNAplus2
ignores it.
Cause type A summary of the cause of the message. Specify CSV
(to indicate that the message was logged using the CSV
LOG_MESSAGE verb), or one of the following values:
Internal Internal error in the application.
Resource Resource shortage (for example,
insufficient memory on the HP-UX
computer).
