Values Returned at Program Termination

A Visual Fortran program can terminate in one of several ways:

• The program runs to normal completion. A value of zero is returned to the shell.
• The program stops with a STOP statement. A value of zero is returned to the shell.
• The program stops because of a signal that is caught but does not allow the program to continue. A value of 1 is returned to the shell.
• The program stops because of a severe run-time error. The error number for that run-time error is returned to the shell. Error numbers are listed in Visual Fortran Run-Time Errors.
• The program stops with a CALL EXIT statement. The value passed to EXIT is returned to the shell.
