RE: [Tn5250j-general] Extend hotspot functionality
Hi Kenneth, I just read that you installed an old cvs version. Well not exactly, i'm using an old release :-) Go back and put in the changes again but this time after each change make sure it works with that one change before committing to cvs. That way you will find the offensive code that is causing you problems. Indeed, but how do i checkout older code before commits ? Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.
RE: [Tn5250j-general] Exception in thread main java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: tn5250j
Hi Dave, I'm assuming this is a java error... and nothing to do with tn5250j. Am I correct in that assumption ?;) I should say yes :-) Seems tn5250j.jar is not in your classpath. It also can be the case that . is not in your classpath either, cause when you start tn5250j from the tn5250j-dir then it should be able to find the tn5250j.jar file. try to enter echo $CLASSPATH on the console to see if . is in the classpath. Let us know what the results are. Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.
RE: [Tn5250j-general] So where to go from here.......
Hi Richard, 1: clean up the bugs list. This really need to be done. 2: formulating a list of fixes and features that need to be resolved be for the 1.0 release. Good one. 3: Spit ball ideas on the future of the project. That should be nice. 4: Start looking at any updates to the website that need to be done like documentation and such. This is a huge one. 5: Possibly do some on line promoting of the project to stimulate new ideas and get some new help. Kind of vague but I was think about it so I put it down. The big question is... how ? Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.
[Tn5250j-general] new project, maybe usefull to use incombination with tn5250j
Hi Guys, A few minutes ago i found the next sf-project. http://www.manentiasoftware.com/kasai/goToHome.action Take a look at it, maybe welcome to integrate in tn5250j to get rid of that endless loggin-in-and-give-your-password-again feature ? :-) Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.
RE: [Tn5250j-general] Another change sent in
Hi All, Fix committed to cvs, all compiles fine, but when using java 1.5.0_05 two warnings pop up... not sure how to fix them, cause removing the null fixes it but i guess that will give troubles on older jvm's like 1.4.2. Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.

Pete Helgren schreef: We should probably tidy it all up.There are 32 open bugs that go all the way back to 2002. Kenneth is the Admin so I think only he can close them. Nope, i can close bugs also, at least i should be able to. If we could figure out what is still open we might be able to assign a few to each of the programmers on the list to get them fixed. Yeah that should be nice. It would be nice to finish the project with a nice clean release. We are at the .6 release level so I am not sure of what all is still missing that would make this a 1.0 release. In one word... bug-hunting :-) I wish Kenneth would check in so we'd know what is up with him. Hope he is OK. I'm sure he's okay, but he does not work at his old company anymore and is taking various steps to release new companies all over the world, so he's very busy. But so now and then i think he really takes a look at the mailing list, so when he'll track activity again he'll join very soon imho. At least that is how i know him :-) Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.

Kenneth Pouncey schreef: This should be fixed in CVS.Richard had that problem. Yeah, gonna compile again in a few minutes :-) Not sure about this.Jump into the code and see what the problem is. Am sure it will be a java 1.5 on linux problem or someone would have already posted the problem. Yeah, that's what i thought too, but which codes of the keymaps are used ? Cause i used xdev to get the codes, but they vary from the ones used in keymap-file ? Yes but then again being a programmer yourself that frustration level can be reduced by figuring out the problem and making the change to fix it :-P Hehehehe you know i'm not THAT skilled yet, but okay, i'll give it a try. Which again begs the question of why you are frustrated with problems. :-) the answer is higher in this mail :-) Looking at the code base should help with that. Okay, let's try to find out... Although Patrick, me not being around does not mean anybody could not update CVS with changes and bug fixes. I know. Not exactly sure if the project lacks leadership per se but more hands digging in the code and updating CVS with bug fixes. I did not said the project lacked leadership, let that be clear. Not a lot of java skills needed to fix the problems you reported so now all that is left to do is dig in. The keymapping problem could probably be fixed in 30 minutes. Let me know and I can tell you where to look. Okay, if you tell me where to look i'll give it a try Best Regards, Patrick has notified the sender that this message has been received.
[Tn5250j-general] tn5250j on linux with java 1.5.0
Hi guys, Recently i installed Ubuntu Linux (which is the best distro i've seen in the last 7 years imho) and that is where the troubles began. Running java 1.5.0_05 on my linux box gives the next troubles... 1) Splashscreen stays on top and the connection window is below it, there is not way to remove it until you actually make the connection to the iseries. 2) Keymapping does nothing... no matter which key you press, nothing happens andyou have to manually edit the keymap file. xdev gives other values then the values used in the keymap file, which makes it hard to find out which value you actually need. No need to say this is very frustrating, cause you loose a lot of functionality in the first place. The second thing... a dutch user contacted me about the jython commands that can be used in tn5250j. A few years ago i was using this functionality a lot, but since i became SCJP i lost the attention to the scripting feature in tn5250j. So there is a lot changed in meanwhile, and commands changed also. The website was never made up-to-date so it's damned hard to actually find out what the exact commands are. Anybody that knows what actually was changed ? _session.getscreen() seems not to work anymore cause things are changed. So i think after almost one year of inactivity, that it becomes time we pickup the project again and do the very last bugfixes, and also remove the 1.3 code crap, to become some more up-to-dated. I know the most of you guys are working on the browser version of tn5250j, but that is not that interesting for the most users, cause tn5250j standalone just does what it needs to do. So maybe we can focus back on the program itself and make it bugfree on windows and linux (and mac) for once and for all. Ofcourse i'm not the project leader, but seems he lost his interests in the project cause we haven't heard him anymore for a very long time. As i'm one of the people that joined the project in the very first beginning it should be nice if we could make a deal, that i will try to lead the team until Kenneth returns. What do you guys think ? Well maybe my java skills do not go that far as most of you, but i will try to lead the project into the right directions. The most important goal is to make it stable now, so we actually can release a FINAL (stable) version. I'm into Linux now, so i can heavily test the program on that platform now.

RE: [Tn5250j-general] compiler 1.5 Vs 1.4
Hi Richard, If I compile tn5250j on SunJDK 1.4.2_08 I can run it on a system with 1.4.2_X and 1.5.X but if I compile it in SunJDK 1.5.0_03 I can not run it on 1.4.2.XX. Indeed, that's the correct behaviour. Does this make seance? Yep it is... 1.5.0 is not backwards compatible.

[Tn5250j-general] What about to move to 1.4 and drop 1.3 ?
Hi Guys, Since 5.0 is already official released and they're already working on 6.0 (which you can already beta-test) don't you think it's time to move to 1.4 and drop the old 1.3 code ? The reason i ask is because i get a bunch of deprecated CharToByte convertors which should be replaced by the java.nio.charset class instead of using those old sun.io classes. That way we can also cleanup some code and maybe that even makes some sence to the performance of the overal tn5250j program ? What do you guys think ?

RE: [Tn5250j-general] CVS update
Hi Kenneth, When it built the project it was building with 0.5.7 not 8. Well then it must be you, cause here it compiles with 0.5.8 alpha 2 for almost an half year now :-) But ofcourse it could be i had changed it already before, that's why i saw no changes.

RE: [Tn5250j-general] CVS update
Hi Kenneth, I was talking about the information that is output when doing an ant build not what shows up on emulator frame. Aaah ic :-) I think Richard or Marc mentioned it after the CVS mass update. Clear. ran across the logging panel. Can you finish that up sometime soon. Erm... no, cause i still do not understand the whole logging crap, i've had it with that stuff. I already programmed the gui in, so let somebody that understand that logging crap put the logging code in, cause i even do not understand how to put logging on anyway. In my opinion the change to the logging stuff was the worst thing we have changed into the code. I still prefer the old way without the log4j stuff. Ofcourse that is personal choice. Actually will be renaming it to 0.6.0 because of all the changes for headless. I agree with that.

Just hit ALT-T and do your transfer.
I want to know how is the structure of fields of AS400's DB (;or: or {
