Finding the next assembly diagnostic or analysis message

Assembly diagnostics are messages created by HLASM when the program is assembled. An analysis message is an indication that ASMPUT has found an instruction that could possibly be in error. It may be worth your while to check the instruction, to make sure that it is correct. The analysis messages are a little like those from a grammar checker in a word processor.

Display the relevant source code.
Right-click in the source code area. From the pop-up menu, click Find Next Diagnostic/Message. Alternatively, press the Ctrl+E keys.

Messages are shown as red on a light gray background. Assembly diagnostics have the prefix “ASMA”, and analysis messages have the prefix “ASMP”.

If assembly diagnostics and analysis messages are currently hidden, when you find the next diagnostic or message, it is shown, and stays shown until you hide it.
