1.6 Diagnostics

The means exists for virtual code applications to have run time error messages written to standard error on their behalf by avram. Any error messages not documented here originate with an application and should be documented by it.

Most error messages originating from avram are prefaced by the application name (i.e., the name of the file containing the virtual machine code), but will be prefaced by avram: if the error is caused by a problem loading this file itself. Error messages originating from virtual code applications are the responsibility of their respective authors and might not be prefaced by the application name.

The run time errors not specifically raised by the application can be classified as internal errors, i/o errors, overflow errors, file format errors, application programming errors, and configuration related errors.

Some error messages include a code number. The number identifies the specific point in the source code where the condition was detected, for the benefit of the person maintaining it.
