*PLBWINXPIO (SETMODE)

PLBWIN, 9.6

*PLBWINXPIO=ON | OFF

 

The *PLBWINXPIO control provides program control to enable and disable operations for runtime keyword named PLBWIN_XPIO.

 

When set to ON, this keyword causes specialized code to be executed for every PL/B fileio statement that performs writing operations. This specialized code retrieves the current data file size and then performs OS operations to cause the EOF (end of file) to be set to this data file size if the new size is larger than a previous operation. By resetting the EOF settings for a data file accessed by a Windows XP system avoids the problem where the OS functions was truncating the data file.

 

See the PLBWIN_XPIO runtime keyword in the PLB Runtime Reference for additional information.
