SerialRecord stereotype

A serial record is a structured record that you use to access a sequential file or data set.

A serial record can be either a fixed-length or a variable-length record. If it is a variable-length record, you must define the record at its maximum size and specify either the lengthItem property, or the numElementsItem property, or both (see SerialRecord properties).

You can use only the following EGL I/O statements with a serial record:

At generation time, use a ResourceAssociation part to specify how you want a serial record to be implemented for your target platform and provide information about how the fileName property relates to a physical file. For more information, see the EGL Generation Guide.

For information about properties you can assign to a SerialRecord definition, see SerialRecord properties.
