When Language Environment fields an abend, condition CEE35I (corresponding to message number 3250) is raised. Language Environment provides q_data (qualifying data) for system or user abends as part of the ISI token for condition CEE35I. The q_data can be retrieved using the CEEGQDT callable service from within a CEEHDLR-established condition handler; see Example illustrating retrieval of q_data for an example invocation, and z/OS Language Environment Programming Reference for syntax of the CEEGQDT service. From a Fortran routine, you can use the Fortran-specific callable services and functions described in Language Environment for MVS & VM Fortran Run-Time Migration Guide to retrieve the q_data, and you do not need to use the q_data_token. The q_data associated with abends is also listed by message number in z/OS Language Environment Runtime Messages.
q_data is comprised of a list of addresses pointing to information that can be used by HLL and user-written condition handlers to react to a condition. The q_data structure for an abend is shown in Figure 1.
If an abend occurs, Language Environment signals condition CEE35I (corresponding to message number 3250) and builds the q_data structure shown in Figure 1.
