Use the Message Settings dialog box to map messages to a different message class.
Some buttons in the panel may be disabled. (For example, if an option cannot be moved to an Information message, the Move to: Information button is disabled.) The following table describes the buttons available in this dialog box.
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Move to: Disabled | Disables selected messages. (Messages no longer occur.) |
| Move to: Information | Changes the selected messages to information messages. |
| Move to: Warning | Changes the selected messages to warning messages. |
| Move to: Error | Changes the selected messages to error messages. |
| Move to: Default | Changes the selected messages to their default message type. |
| Reset All | Resets all messages to their default message type. |
| OK | Exits this panel and accepts the changes made. |
| Cancel | Exits this panel without accepting the changes made. |
| Help | Displays online help about this panel. |
A panel is available for each error message class. The content of the list box depends on the selected panel. The following table lists the message group definitions.
| Message Group | Description |
|---|---|
| Disabled | Lists all disabled messages. Messages displayed in the list box will not be displayed by the tool. |
| Information | Lists all information messages. Information messages describe the actions taken by the tool. |
| Warning | Lists all warning messages. When a warning message is generated, input file processing continues. |
| Error | Lists all error messages. When an error message is generated, input file processing continues. |
| Fatal | Lists all fatal error messages. When a fatal error message is generated, input file processing stops immediately. Fatal messages cannot be changed and are only listed to provide access to context help. |
Each message has its own prefix (for example, `C' for Compiler messages, `A' for Assembler messages, `L' for Linker messages, `M' for Maker messages, `LM' for Libmaker messages) followed by a 4- or 5-digit number. This number allows an easy search for the message both in the manual or on-line help.
