ILE C/C++ Programmer's Guide


ILE C Record I/O Functions


C language only
The ILE C library provides a set of extensions to the ISO C definition for I/O. This set of extensions, referred to as record I/O, allows your program to perform I/O operations one record at a time.

The ILE C record I/O functions work with all the file types that are supported on the iSeries system.

Each file that is opened with _Ropen() has an associated structure of type _RFILE. The <recio.h> header file defines this structure.

Attention: Unpredictable results may occur if you attempt to change this structure.

Different open modes and keyword parameters apply to the different iSeries Data Management file types. For information about each file type and how to open a record file using _Ropen(), see:

Note:
There is no equivalent function provided by the C++ run-time library.
