Those return values are negative numbers (e.g. GEMDOS error -66 is "Invalid program load format"). Negative GEMDOS error returns are translated nach MS-DOS error numbers for the form_error() alert box you see. BIOS errors result in a "Critical Error" alert, which gi- ves you a chance to retry the disk access that caused the error. For those of you with a furniture fetish, here's a table: GEMDOS MS-DOS Error description error error Alert text (TOS 1.4 or >) ------------------------- ------ ------ ------------------------- Invalid function # -32 1 TOS Error #1. File not found -33 2 This application cannot Path not found -34 3 find the folder or file No more files -49 18 you just tried to access. Too many open files -35 4 This application does not have room to open another document. To make room, close any document that you do not need. Access denied -36 5 An item with this name already exists in the directory, or this item is set to Read Only status Invalid handle -37 6 TOS Error #6. Insufficient memory -39 8 There is not enough memory Invalid memory block addr. -40 9 in your computer for the application you just tried to run. Invalid drive -46 15 The drive you specified does not exist. Not same drive (on rename) -48 17 TOS Error #17. Seek out of range -64 n/a TOS Error #33. Internal error -65 n/a TOS Error #34. Invalid prg load format -66 n/a (infamous) TOS Error #35. Setblock failed -67 n/a TOS Error #36. Note that some MS-DOS error codes do not have equivalent GEMDOS er- rors, and some GEMDOS error codes do not exist in MS-DOS. weiterblättern Kapitel Die Fehlermeldungen des TOS Betriebssystem, Seite 1
