Re: V5R2: Source now allowed in the IFS

Scott

You're not missing anything. IFS would always beat a source member, unless
it was fixed format. I think the good news is, in V5R2, there is evern
BETTER support in the IFS. There's a completely new format for storing and
accessing the data. Details? I don't know, have just heard this from IBMers.

Of course, disk is cheap, and the compiler didn't allow you to specify an IFS
path back then, so I went for convienience and used the traditional PF
approach.  I just wonder why he said that disk space was inefficient...
I'm wondering if there's something that I'm not taking into account?
