Re: [Tn5250j-general] Emulator hangs
Hello Kenneth, not sure if I every mentioned in this discussion that when the emulator hangs, it doesn't paint anything. Just a black screen (well depending on you color settings of course). Not sure if this gives you any more information thought. Even, at the customers site where the problem occurred most frequently, the users said that is happend less frequently then on our first setup and tryout day. It is also quite difficult for us to send a [reset] at the end but in our development environments. I'll give that a try by coding it in and see if it helps. I however have not seen the problem quite often. Regards, Wim.

It just happens once and a while. So I cannot send you a guaranteed test case. That sucks. Those are the worse kinds of problems. Is this only happening with sending keys during the signon sequence or do you already have a session open and then send keys to it? Both? Is it only while sending keys or does it happen during live keying as well from an operator? Can you go ahead and try the reset keystroke within the stream and let's see what happens? Not sure if it is feasable for you guys or not. Just trying to help with an idea.

If you sent it within the stream as a keystroke it does not go through the keyboard handler but straight to the keystroke simulator. That way we can narrow the problem area. Can you send me an example of this so I can take a look at it? It does not happen within the emulator itself or else I do not know how to recreate it on my side.

To see if it is the keybuffering that is causing the problem let's try something. At the end of your keys that your are sending insert as the last key sequence [reset]. The last thing it will do is clear the keybuffer after all is done. If this solves it then we will need to debug the keybuffering if I can get an example from you guys and reproduce the code. Let me know if it works. I am not sure but it could depend on the version of the code that you are running against because I remember having a problem with not being able to even send a reset key at one time (not sure of the release right now). If you can run the code base and create the KB at the the bottom then press the reset key the KB should go off and the buffered keys should be cleared.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Emulator hangs
Hello Wim Do you have a code snippet for me to test with and example signon scenario? I have not done this so would need to actually see the code to give it a try and debug if there is a problem with the Key handling routines.
