*PLBANSIIO (GETMODE)

9.4D, PLBCON or PLBWIN

*PLBANSIIO={value}

The *PLBANSIIO keyword allows the current runtime state for the runtime PLB_ANSIIO keyword to be accessed under program control. The keyword currently has the follow effect:

For any READ instruction that is transferring record data into a FORM variable in a FILE, AFILE, or IFILE variable list, a FORMAT error is generated if the record data contains non-leading white space characters.

It should be noted when accessing a Data Manager that the SETMODE *PLBANSIIO keyword MUST be set before the executing program logs onto the Data Manager. The current runtime state for the *PLBANSIO keyword is only used during the logon process and the Data Manager usage cannot be changed until the next time that a logon is performed after all of the managed files have been closed.
