Re: STRPCCMD - STRPCO uses?

Kenneth,

I'm completely with your proposal about the STRPCCMDJ as it will allow for 
so much more than STRPCCMD. The problem being however you application has 
to run on TN5250j. 

Most of the customers use e.g. third party software where the STRPCCMD is 
programmed in the application. so they can not change it. The call is used 
for the most stupiest stuff you can imagine. e.g. open an image or a word 
document; Whatever. You imagine it they do it somewhere; 

That is the main reason I think we need to implement standard STRPCCMD 
behaviour. As a matter a fact the STRPCCMD functionality is implemented so 
simple it is even stupid. Look at the screenshots below

Re: [Tn5250j-general] STRPCCMD - STRPCO uses?







Wim

I have been thinking about this ever since Ignacio posted to the list.  My 
idea
was to implement our own STRPCCMD command maybe called STRPCCMDJ or 
something
stupid like that.  Here we just attach a scan listener like you do in one 
of the
modules maybe My5250 and take care of it that way.  When we get the 
command we
can parse it and anything that has #!STRPCCMD xxxxxxxxx in it we just 
execut it.
 Was going to be one of my sample/examples :-)

Technical question?  Is there a special stream passed back for this type 
of
call?  If there is would it be the -128 code that Ignacio posted?  If it 
is
where did he get the information from?

Also what do they use it for?  Sorry but can not really think of a use. Am 
just
a lowly programmer and not into the solutions that you and the others out 
there do.

Cool!!!  Let's make this sucker jump through some hoops now that the code 
base
is stable.  This could turn out to be a lot more flexible that what CA 
provides
as well.  We could also allow a custom implementation to be loaded from 
the
command line so the clients can load their own modules to handle this in 
their
own way.

Regards

Kenneth
