If this was an implicit DLL reference, the condition is signaled. If the condition is not handled, the default action is to terminate the enclave.

If this was an explicit DLL Load (CEEPLDE) or DLL Open (CEEPOPDL) request, the feedback code is returned to the caller.

If this was a C dllload() or dlopen() request and the _EDC_DLL_DIAG environment variable was not set to QUIET, the error message was sent to the Language Environment® message file. Other DLL diagnostic options, such as issuing ctrace(), signaling a condition, and turning off _EDC_DLL_DIAG diagnostics, were available through the _EDC_DLL_DIAG environment variable.

If this was an explicit C dlopen() request, this error could also be returned to the caller through a subsequent call to the C dlerror() function.

A CEEDLLF DLL failure control block is populated with further DLL error diagnostics.
