The LOCK-FRAME command locks a specified frame in memory.
Format
LOCK-FRAME number |
Parameter(s)
number |
Decimal number of the frame to be locked. |
Description
The LOCK-FRAME command is useful when you expect to access a particular frame repeatedly over a period of time, since a frame locked in memory cannot be swapped out to disk.
The hexadecimal work address of the memory buffer where the frame is core-locked displays on your screen when you lock a frame. The frame remains core-locked until it is released by the UNLOCK-FRAME command.
This example locks frame 287 in memory:
