|
||
|
|
<p>The force-end-of-data function is valid for both input and
|
||
|
|
output. The force-end-of-data function for an output file forces the system
|
||
|
|
to write all buffered records to tape. When this occurs, the system might
|
||
|
|
write a short block on the volume. The force-end-of-data function
|
||
|
|
for an input file positions the tape at the last volume for the file and signals
|
||
|
|
end-of-file to the using program.</p>
