Multiplatform - 9.5.0.3, new function may eliminate need for ASCIINP input exit

New function: ACIF form feed support

ACIF supports the form feed character ( x'0C' ) to indicate the start of a new page in line data files.

In previous server versions, ACIF has not recognized the form feed character as the start of a new page, so in order to process this data with ACIF, the ASCIINP input exit is required.

The FORMFEED parameter is not available with the ACIF indexer on z/OSŪ or with the OS/400 indexer on IBM iŪ.

Update to the referenced doc.

The FORMFEED parameter is not available with the ACIF indexer on z/OSŪ or with the OS/400 indexer on IBM iŪ.


It now reads:

Restriction: The FORMFEED parameter is not available with the OS/400 indexer on IBM iŪ.
