[Tn5250j-general] CVS update

2005-06-13 Thread Kenneth Pouncey

Hello all

I have committed the changes for Marc's request for pasting long text 
lines and the URL problem for hotspots reported by Richard.


Also updated the build.xml to output the correct version information.

Regards

Kenneth

Re: [Tn5250j-general] EDTWRD

OK I just went and created a test file for this to check in both CA and tn5250j
before we create a whole bunch of dumps for nothing.

Here is the way I created it.

AWNOAC 12  0B 13 20EDTWRD('.  -   -   ') 
A  EDTMSK('&  &   &   ') 


This shows up as blanks without the mask characters as you say if the field is
blanks.  This happens in both tn5250j and Client Access.  Looking in the data
stream the mask characters are not being sent so there is no way for me to
figure them out without it telling me.


To make the field separaters show up all the time the field will have to be
something besides blank or change the edtwrd to use a 0 (zero) like below:

AWNOAC 12  0B 13 20EDTWRD('   0.  -   -   ')
A  EDTMSK('&  &   &   ')

The above produces the following if the field is blank or not initialized:
'.00-000-000'

Another example here with the 0 at the beginning:

AWNOAC 12  0B 13 20EDTWRD('0   .  -   -   ')
A  EDTMSK('&  &   &   ')

The above produces the following if the field is blank or not initialized:
' 000.00-000-000'

Hope that helps but can not do anything about it and also works the same as
Client Access because the controller itself is not sending back the separators.

Regards

Hi Kenneth,


Mocha and Powerterm Pro handle EDTWRD only for display AND only when the
field contains something other than blanks or zeroes. For the rest, it is
just a plain input field. The cursor doesn't even skip the formatting
separtors.

This how a date field [EDTWRD('  -  -')] looks like with TN5250j when
it' initially displayed in NON-GUI mode.

__ __ 

And this with the other two:

__

After filling in something (01012005):

TN5250j:01 01 2005
Others:  01012005

and pressing ENTER, it's displayed like this:

TN5250j:01-01-2005
Others:  01-01-2005

Now, when I start typing a new date, say 1212, it goes like this:

TN5250j:12-12-2005
Others:  12121-2005

At this point, with TN5250j I can use the TAB-key to move to the next field.
With the others I have to continue typing the rest of the date and use
FIELD-EXIT to delete the rest. So TN5250j is running circles around the
others! The only thing left to do is to display the separator characters of
the EDTWRD when the field is empty.
