exit-status specifies <request status>, which must be a number; this is the status that is passed out of the request to the external caller (see request and exit-handler).
<request status> can be obtained with "exit-status" clause in read-remote in the service caller; when the program runs as command-line, <request status> is program's exit code.
exit-status can be specified anywhere in the code, and does not mean exiting the request's processing; to do that, either use exit-handler or simply allow the handler to reach its end. If your program encounters difficulties and errors out, then the <request status> is always a fixed reserved value of 107, regardless of you setting it with exit-status.
When exit-status is not used, the default exit code is 0. When multiple exit-status statements run in a sequence, the request status is that of the last one that executes.
If you want to specify request status and exit request processing at the same time, use exit-handler.
Examples
When the program exits, its exit code will be 12:
exit-status12 ...
exit-handler
