ILE C/C++ Programmer's Guide


Stream Files

The ILE C/C++ compiler allows your program to process stream files as true text or binary stream files (using the integrated file system enabled stream I/O) or as simulated text and binary stream files (using the default data management stream I/O).

When writing an application that uses stream files, for better performance, it is recommended that the integrated file system be used instead of the default C stream I/O which is mapped on top of the data management record I/O.
