Description

type

<ERROR, WARNING, ID>

No default

ERROR:

Limits the total number of ERROR messages allowed to the value provided. Once this limit is reached, the run terminates.

WARNING:

Limits the total number of WARNING and INFORMATION messages reported in the .out file to the value provided.

ID:

Limits the number of instances of a message with the given ID reported in the .out file to the value provided.

value

<INTEGER, OFF, NONE, ERROR, ABORT>

See comments 1 and 2 for defaults.

INTEGER:

If a positive integer is given, the limit is set to this number.

OFF or NONE:

“value=NONE” can only be used if “type = ID”. See Comment 3.

ERROR:

Valid only when the type is ID.

Messages with this ID will be treated as ERRORs, that is, continuation at the end of the current stage will be disallowed unless the message is encountered during the solver, where full post-processing of the results will be allowed before termination; optimization runs will terminate as if the limit of allowed iterations had been reached.

ABORT:

Valid only when type is ID.

Messages with this ID will be treated as abort ERRORs, that is, the solver will terminate immediately. If the message is encountered during the solver, no output files will be generated. If it happens during reading or verification of input data, the remaining parts of input will not be processed.

mode

<STRICT, UNREF, BRIEF>

Default = <BRIEF>

STRICT:

All messages are printed according to MSGLMT.

UNREF:

Messages 1931, 1932 and 2010 are suppressed.

BRIEF:

Messages 741, 742, 1935, 1931, 1932, 2010, 1052, 1305, and 1436 are suppressed.

MSGLMT(Message ID/WARNING/ERROR) = 1

Prevents any information about consecutive occurrences of the specified message to be registered and counted.

If WARNING/ERROR is used, only the first WARNING/ERROR is printed.

MSGLMT(Message ID/WARNING/ERROR) = 0

MSGLMT(Message ID/WARNING/ERROR) = OFF

Message ID: All occurrences of the specified message will be displayed.

WARNING: All Warnings will be displayed.

ERROR: All Errors will be displayed.

MSGLMT(Message ID) = NONE

The specified message (and multiple occurrences of the same, if any) will not be printed in the output file.

Note:

1. If the Message ID belongs to an error, the specified error and multiple occurrences of the same error will not be printed in the output file. However, this will not allow the solver to continue after error suppression. This can sometimes generate an output file which states that an error occurred without any information regarding the nature of the error, since it was suppressed.

2. Suppressed ERROR/WARNING messages still count toward respective limits and are reported in the job summary.

3. Using MSGLMT(Message ID)=NONE for ERROR messages is not recommended.

MSGLMT(Message ID) = <Negative Integer>

Negative values are not supported. A “Syntax error” will be displayed, if negative integer values are used.
