<h1 class="topictitle1">Use the force-end-of-data operation </h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>The force-end-of-data (FEOD) operation allows you
|
||
|
|
to force all changes that were made to a file by your program to auxiliary
|
||
|
|
storage. It also allows you to position the read operation to either the beginning
|
||
|
|
or the end of a file if the file is open for input operations.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Normally, the system determines when to force changes to auxiliary storage.
|
||
|
|
However, you can use the FEOD operation to ensure that all changes are forced
|
||
|
|
to auxiliary storage.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>*START sets the beginning or starting position in the database file member
|
||
|
|
currently open to just before the first record in the member (the first sequential
|
||
|
|
read operation reads the first record in the current member). If MBR(*ALL)
|
||
|
|
processing is in effect for the Override with Database File (OVRDBF) command,
|
||
|
|
a read previous operation gets the last record in the previous member. If
|
||
|
|
a read previous operation is done and the previous member does not exist,
|
||
|
|
the end of file message (CPF5001) is sent. *END sets the position in the database
|
||
|
|
file member currently open to just after the last record in the member (a
|
||
|
|
read previous operation reads the last record in the current member). If MBR(*ALL)
|
||
|
|
processing is in effect for the OVRDBF command, a read next operation gets
|
||
|
|
the first record in the next member. If a read next operation is done and
|
||
|
|
the next member does not exist, the end of file message (CPF5001) occurs.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>If the file has a delete trigger, the force-end-of-data operation is not
|
||
|
|
allowed. If the file is part of a referential parent relationship, the FEOD
|
||
|
|
operation is not allowed. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>See your high-level language topic collection for more information about
|
||
|
|
the FEOD operation (some high-level languages do not support the FEOD operation).</p>
