Description

NextInVSet() is identical to it’s fixed-length counterpart, NextInSet(), except that it reads the next variable-length data record in the set defined by target and siglen. If successful, this record becomes the current ISAM record for the associated data file. plen acts as both an input and output parameter. On input, plen contains the length of the output buffer. On output, plen contains the actual data record length. If the length of the output buffer is less than the actual record length, a partial read is performed.
