VMS Help RMS, XABSUM *Conan The Librarian |
The summary XAB (XABSUM) can be associated with a FAB at the time
a Create, Open, or Display service is invoked. The presence of
this XAB during these calls allows RMS to return to your program
the total number of keys and allocation areas defined and the
version number when the file was created. Note that a XABSUM is
used only with indexed files.
The following table lists the symbolic offset, the size in bytes,
and a brief description of each field.
Offset Size Description
XAB$B_BLN Byte Block length
XAB$B_COD Byte Type code
XAB$B_NOA Byte Number of allocation areas defined for the
file
XAB$B_NOK Byte Numbers of keys defined for the file
XAB$L_NXT Longword Next XAB address
XAB$W_PVN Word Prolog version number
