interrupt.
is one of the following:
where:
CALL trap-routine
ABORT
IGNORE
trap-routine
is an external subroutine name.
The ON statement is an HP extension. It is an executable statement that specifies the action to
be taken after the occurrence of an exception that interrupts program execution.
For each interrupt-condition, you can specify one of the following actions:
CALL: specifies a subroutine to be called.
ABORT: causes the program to abort.
IGNORE: causes the interrupt to be ignored.
Table 10-32 lists the range of values for interrupt-condition. The first column identifies
thetypeoftrap;thesecondgivesthekeywordsthatmustappearontheON statement,
immediately following the word ON; and the third column gives equivalent keywords you can
specify instead of those in the second column. For example, the following ON statement causes
the program to trap an attempt to divide by zero with 8-byte floating-point operands, passing
control to a user-written trap handler called div_zero_trap:
