RE: RPG ILE Write

["Smith, Nelson" <NSmith@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Years ago, John, we had to set FRCRATIO to 1 when we had two programs
sharing an ODP and the second program needed to be able to see the record
written by the first program, because without it, the record was still in
the buffer (or something like that).

It seems that I heard Kent Milligan or one of the database guys saying (a
few releases back) that data management now always reads the buffers first
before checking the disk for a record. If so, it doesn't seem that we would
need FRCRATIO anymore.  Do you remember anything about that?
