CBL_READ_VFILE

Syntax:

call "CBL_READ_VFILE" using by value heap-id
                                     heap-ref
                                     heap-length
                      by reference   heap-buffer
                      returning      status-code

Parameters:

	Using call prototype (see Key)	Picture
`heap-id`	cblt-vfile-handle.	pic x(2) comp-5.
`heap-ref`	cblt-x4-comp5.	pic x(4) comp-5.
`heap-length`	cblt-x4-comp5.	pic x(4) comp-5.
`heap-buffer`	pic x(`n`).	pic x(`n`).
`status-code`	See Library Routines - Key.

On Entry:

`heap-id`	This contains the heap handle assigned when the heap was opened.
`heap-ref`	Offset in the heap at which to start reading. In .NET, this is limited to a maximum value of 0x7fffffff.
`heap-length`	Number of bytes to read.

On Exit:

heap-buffer

Buffer into which bytes are read. It is your responsibility to ensure that the buffer is large enough to hold the number of bytes being read.

Comments:

Trying to read data from an area of the heap which has not yet been written results in indeterminate data being returned to the buffer.
