The following sections describe stream I/O requirements for using:
Within the C or C++ run-time environment, stream I/O for files up to two GB in size is enabled by specifying the *IFSIO option on the system interface keyword (SYSIFCOPT) on the Create Module or Create Bound Program command prompt.
When using the SYSIFCOPT keyword with either command, follow this format:
CRTCPPMOD MODULE(QTEMP/IFSIO) SRCFILE(QCPPLE/QACSRC) SYSIFCOPT(*IFSIO)
CRTBNDCPP PGM(QTEMP/IFSIO) SRCFILE(QCPPLE/QACSRC) SYSIFCOPT(*IFSIO)
When the *IFSIO option is specified, the compiler defines the __IFS_IO__ macro. When __IFS_IO__ is defined, prototypes associated with stream I/O in <stdio.h> are no longer defined. The header file <ifs.h> is included by <stdio.h>, which declares all structure and prototypes associated with the integrated file system enabled C stream I/O.
The 64-bit version of the Integrated File System interface lets you use
ILE C stream I/O with files up to and greater than two gigabytes in
size. (C++ stream I/O for files greater than two gigabytes is not
supported.) To enable the 64-bit interface, specify the *IFS64IO option
with the SYSIFCOPT keyword on the CRTCPPMOD or CRTBNDCPP command
prompt. When this option is specified, the compiler defines the
__IFS64_IO__ macro which, for example, remaps the
open() function to an open64() function to allow 64-bit
indexing..
The fstream(), ifstream(), and ofstream()
classes have a new open mode ios::text, which opens the
file in text mode.
By default, I/O streams are opened in binary mode (not in text mode, as stated in the Version 3 Release 7 books).
If you want to add carriage return (\r) characters, use the fopen() function with crln=Y (the default).
