CodeView displays an error message whenever it detects a command it cannot execute. Most errors terminate the CodeViewcommand that is in error but do not terminate the debugger. Startup errors terminate the debugger.
Note:
Depending on the context of the error, CodeView may display only the text of the message without the error number. CodeView error messages are organized in alphabetical order by message text.
In some cases, CodeView ay display the error number by itself. To obtain the error message text and an explanation of the error in those cases, use Help. Click the right mouse button on the error number or use the Help (H) Command-window command. For example, error number CV1027 displays Help for the following error:
invalid radix: specify 8, 10, or 16
You can also get Help for any CodeView error message by using PWB and QuickHelp.
Expression Evaluator Error Messages
The C and C++ expression evaluators produce error message numbers prefixed by CAN and CXX, respectively. The C++ error messages are a superset of the C error messages. Therefore, only the CXX prefix is listed for the messages in this section. The expression evaluator error messages are listed in numerical order after the CodeView error messages.
