<extfhreindexoncreate>

The <extfhreindexoncreate> global configuration keyword is used to determine whether new indices created by the EXTFH Create Index operation (special opcode 07) are immediately populated with key values.

If yes, the Get Next Record (special opcode 08) and Add Key Value (special opcode 09) operations become obsolete, allowing for improved performance.

Accepted Values

Value

Effect
