PROGRAM 6: Error 208 handled by user

CHARACTERISTICS: ynnn

OPERATOR SCRIPT:
See OPERATOR SCRIPT for Program 1.

DESIGN:
Throughout this program, every time an error is signalled (as noted
by the tag "signals error"), the user-defined error handler saves
the error code, function identifier, and error file identifier in
an error table.

Post structure with a display priority less than 0 or larger than 1
to test if the function 111  generates error 208: ignoring function,
the display priority is out of range.

*** *** ***  Generate errors; test absence of side effects  *** *** ***

<open workstation> wkid
create structure network 100 - 101
<post structure> with wkid, structure id=100, display priority=0.5

<post structure> with wkid, 101, display priority=-0.1 : signals error
<post structure> with wkid, 101, display priority= 1.1 : signals error
use <inquire posted structure> to get:
     number = number of posted structures
     postst = list of posted structures
     orgpri = priority
TEST: #SR 6
      "If <post structure> signals an error because the specified
       display priority is out of range, it should not cause any other
       effect."
pass/fail depending on (system state = PHIGS-open and
                        workstation state = open and
                        number = 1 and postst = (100) and
                        orgpri = 0.5)

*** *** ***  Results of user-defined error handling  *** *** ***

TEST: #SR 6
      "If <post structure> is called and the specified display
       priority is out of range, it should return error
       code  208, function identifier  111, and the current error file
       identifier to the user defined error handler."
pass/fail depending on (next entry in error table = expected values)

TEST: #SR 6
      "If <post structure> is called and the specified display
       priority is out of range, it should return error
       code  208, function identifier  111, and the current error file
       identifier to the user defined error handler."
