Re: FILE TRIGGER

[BMay@xxxxxxxxx]

When dealing with triggers, I keep the processing to an absolute minimum 
within the actual trigger program.  In most cases, I have my trigger 
program write some identifying information to a transaction file or a 
dataque.  This can  be done very quickly, usually without noticeable 
performance degradation.  I then have a server or a submitted job handle 
the heavy lifting asynchronously.

FILE TRIGGER






I have file with a trigger program attached to it and when a record is
written to this file it is suppose to execute the trigger. Once the
record is written it take a good 3 to 5 minutes to execute the trigger.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

 

 

Thank You,
