In case you modify the attribute field of map do you need
to recompile the map?

Answer Posted / kautuk

Yes Need to recompile the Map.
If you modify an existing map in a way that affects the
symbolic map, you must recompile (reassemble) any programs
using it, so that the compilation uses the symbolic
structure that corresponds to the new physical structure.
Changes to unnamed map fields do not affect the symbolic
map, but addition, deletion, rearrangement, and length
changes of named fields do. (Rearrangement refers to the
DFHMDF macros; the order of the fields on the screen does
not affect the symbolic map, although it is more efficient
to have the DFHMDF macros in same order as the fields on
the screen.) So make changes to the DSATTS option in the
map definition--this option states the extended attributes
you may want to change by program. It is always safest to
recompile, of course
