Note:
Where the amount of object text would exceed the record size for
the associated data file, the record is continued on the next record.
The continuation flag is set in the common header section of the
record. The current length of the object text (for that record) is
stored in the record and the record written to the associated data
file. The next record contains the subsequent object text. The
length of the object text is the length for the current record.
Fields that have been written will not be repeated in the next
record. Fixed length fields will be initialized to binary zeros or
spaces. The exception is the location counter field which will
contain the correct location for the start of the continued object
text. |
