I would be curious as to what the wrt_job_log() function received and why it didn't write the job log entry.

Subject: Why does this compile?
I have a piece of code that compiles with no errors. It runs, but doesn't do anything.
Here is the code:
wrt_job_log('*** ' + %trim(sdprogram) = ': Price Change Report ' +
'has completed for Customer #' +
%trim(%editc(e1cust : 'X')) + '.');
I accidentally typed an equal sign and it should be a plus sign right before the colon. The compiler took it, compiled it with no error, but when the program gets to the line, it doesn't write a job log entry.
Once I saw the problem, I changed the = to a plus, recompiled and reran.
There is now an entry in the joblog.
Prototype wrt_job_log accepts a CHAR(512) field with CONST defined.
Is this a compiler bug?
