CONTIG:value
Arguments
value
One of the following values: (n)
0 = The file is not allocated contiguously.
1 = The file is allocated contiguously. If sufficient space is not available, the file is not created and an “Output file is full” error ($ERR_FILFUL) occurs.
2 = The file is allocated on a best-try basis. If sufficient space is not available, the file is created noncontiguously and no error occurs.
Discussion
The CONTIG qualifier enables you to specify the desired contiguity of a file. This qualifier is used in conjunction with ALLOC and is only used if the file is opened for output.
