Macintosh QuickBASIC Compiled Program Can Give Error Line # (43792)
This article was previously published under Q43792
SUMMARY
To enable a Macintosh QuickBASIC compiled application to return the
line number where a run-time error occurs, you must choose the
compiler option "Process Runtime Events." This option is chosen from
the Run menu under "Options...". With this compiler option,
applications display error messages in the following form:
***** Error MM at NNNNN
This message is displayed in a dialog box with a STOP sign indicating
that the application was terminated. An <OK> button prompts you to
return to the application from which the program was launched.
MM refers to the error number. The errors are listed by number in the
"Microsoft QuickBASIC for Apple Macintosh: Language Reference" manual,
Pages 557-559.
NNNNN in the message refers to the physical line number in the BASIC
source file where the error occurred. (This number is not a memory
address.)
To see physical line numbers most easily, you must select the "Create
Program List File" compiler option. This creates a "lst" listing file
with physical line numbers.
