Hi,
Does anybody has experience truncating sequential data sets using ZFILE or other means?
We are looking for an implementation of the C++ library ftruncate() in a java library.
java.nio supports truncate as well (see
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/ap ... ne l.html )
Or are there any other alternatives to delete written data (records) from a file?

truncating data from sequential files
This is a limitation of the z/OS C++ library - classic MVS datasets cannot be truncated in the middle.
