- PCA will not call, or invoke, your user routine image if it is linked with warnings or errors. - You must define a logical name to access the user routine image if it is not found in SYS$SHARE. - A system service routine which is invoked from a user- supplied routine should be written in the C language (as referenced by the /USER_ROUTINE qualifier in the glossary of the DIGITAL Performance and Coverage Analyzer for OpenVMS Reference Manual). If written in some other languages, it may have the effect of locking up PCA. Examples are provided in PCA$EXAMPLES.
