Handling conditions from date and time callable services

Condition handling by COBOL for AIX is significantly different from that provided by IBM Language Environment® on the host. COBOL for AIX adheres to the native COBOL condition handling scheme and does not provide the level of support that is in Language Environment.

If you pass a feedback token an argument, it will simply be returned after the appropriate information has been filled in. You can code logic in the calling routine to examine the contents and perform any actions if necessary. The condition will not be signaled.
