ABSTRACT OF PROBLEM
___________________
The INLINE parameter for DBRED, dfred, DBADD, and dfadd is no
longer useful and should be obsoleted. Additionally, the code
generated in the application when using the INLINE parameter may
not work correctly with future enhancements.
COMMENTS ON PROBLEM
___________________
APAR PQ32210 on TPFDF PUT 15 originally introduced the INLINE
parameter as an alternative for the FAST parameter. INLINE gen-
erates inline code in TPFDF applications. The original intent
for having inline-generated code on add and read operations was
to provide a performance improvement. However, TPFDF 1.1.3 uses
a fast-link mechanism that is as efficient as inline-generated
code. Moreover, applications that have inline-generated code are
more likely to require reassembly or recompilation to incorpo-
rate new maintenance or enhancements. Therefore, this inline
mechanism for add and read operations is no longer required and
should no longer be used.
SOLUTION
________
Segments DBINI1, DB135, DB140, DB150, TPFDB, UFGASO, and UFGRSO
were updated to obsolete the INLINE parameter.
DEPENDENCIES

On TPF : CTDF.
Migration Considerations
========================
After applying this APAR, TPFDF will no longer recognize the INLINE
parameter on the DBADD and DBRED macros, or the DFADD_INLINE and
DFRED_INLINE parameters on the dfadd() and dfred() functions,
respectively. Attempting to use these parameters will result in
assembler or compiler errors. Applications that use any of these
parameters should be changed to use the NOKEY, DFADD_NOKEY, or
DFRED_NOKEY parameters, respectively, to maintain existing
functionality. Existing object code will continue to behave the same
after this APAR is applied.
The following MNOTE will be generated at assembly time when the INLINE
parameter is coded: 8,INLINE PARAMETER NOT ALLOWED
