GetEOF
The GetEOF method returns the current end of file status for the managed file.
GetEOF is designed to be used after a call to the Next or Previous method. The GetEOF return value is undefined prior to the call to Next or Previous.
Implementation:
GetEOF returns one (1 or True) if the last record in a Next/Previous series was read; otherwise it returns zero (0 or False).
Return Data Type: BYTE

PROGRAM
INCLUDE('ABFILE.INC') !declare FileManager class
MAP !program map
END
GlobalErrors ErrorClass !declare GlobalErrors object
Access:Client CLASS(FileManager) !derive Access:Client object
