Deleting the conversion data
The machine data (destination files) previously created during the conversion can be deleted
with the help of the softkey ”Delete”. The selection of the objects to be deleted (inch/metric) is
made with the data selector.
12.36.7
Error handling
Some basic errors are detected not only before the conversion but also before the switchover
by a syntax analysis of the configuration file (CONFIG) and indicated on the user interface. A
master control event box is then shown in which the faulty line number (if the error can be
attributed to a line) and an explanatory error text is then read out. A list of all possible errors
that can arise during reading in of the configuration file is listed in the appendix.
The configuration file is interpreted during conversion and switchover while the list of
descriptions is only necessary during conversion.
A syntax test is carried out in the list of descriptions and incurring errors are signalled to the
user interface.
The following is an example of an error that can incur when in TEA1 the entry ”n” for general
machine data has been omitted. The log file shows the error as follows:
...
Error 5: Format error in data list
Line 2 file/mmc.001/user.005/mdas.140/list.142
Unexpectedly found: <<End-of-line>>
Expected would be at this point:
Handling type (n, a, s, k, ...)
When an error incurs, the values in the target files have already been partially converted, but
due to this error the entire data block becomes useless.
The last line in the log file tells if the conversion was successful. Example of a conversion free
from errors:
...
Updating target file XXX
Example of a faulty conversion:
...
32 errors -- target file XXX NOT updated
