==Usage notes==

Use the IFFLUSH call to control space management for the Model 204 server tables, such as QTBL and STBL, that are occupied by compilations and %variables. You can delete items from storage that are no longer needed and make room for new compilations.

You can use the IFFLUSH call on any type of IFSTRT thread. IFFLUSH is only valid for use with the Compiled IFAM facility. 

===Using IFFLUSH on a multiple cursor IFSTRT thread===

On a multiple cursor IFSTRT thread, except for IFFTCH, IFUPDT, and IFOCC compilations which may be flushed individually, IFFLUSH does not allow the flushing of individual compilations or %variables. 

IFFLUSH flushes everything. If IFFLUSH is coded without a name list (as shown in the example below), it empties the server tables and frees all record sets and CCATEMP pages that are held by the HLI program. On a multiple cursor IFSTRT thread, IFFLUSH operates similarly to an END statement in SOUL. 

==Coding example (COBOL)==
