RE: Commitment Control in RPG

Nope, you've got it.

Yes you need COMMIT on the f-spec of every file you want to write to as part of this transaction.

Subject: Commitment Control in RPG

I have a series of chunks of code that has to all complete or risk
corrupting data. I am thinking COMMIT might be the best option for me. But
how is it setup?

To me it looks like in a CL you need to STRCMTCTL then call the program.
Do
I need COMMIT on the F-Spec as well? Then it looks like when my three
statements are done; either I do a COMMIT or a ROLLBACK depending on the
outcome? Am I correct on all of this?

I do know about journaling and have that already setup. But I have
actually
never done this. Am I on the right track or am out way out in left field?
