Thanks to the tracing of Web5250 I wrote my first and smallest screen scraper with th5250j :
ProtocolBean pb = new ProtocolBean("test", "123"); pb.setHostName("10.10.10.1"); Session5250 session = pb.getSession(); pb.connect(); while (!session.isConnected()) Thread.sleep(500L); Screen5250 screen = session.getScreen(); ScreenFields campi = screen.getScreenFields(); ScreenField campoUtente = campi.findByPosition(3, 21); campoUtente.setString("DEMO"); ScreenField campoPassword = campi.findByPosition(3, 46); campoPassword.setString("DEMO"); screen.gotoField(campoUtente.getCurrentPos()); screen.sendKeys("[enter]"); while (screen.getOIA().getInputInhibited() == 1 && screen.getOIA().getLevel() != 10) Thread.sleep(300L); for (int x = 0; x < screen.getScreenFields().getFieldCount(); x++) { ScreenField campo = screen.getScreenFields().getField(x); System.out.println(x + " : R" + campo.startRow() + "C" + campo.startCol() + ", len : " + campo.getFieldLength() + ", value : " + campo.getString()); } screen.dumpScreen(); and it works (of course it could be further ... polished) ! Best regards, Davide Grandi PS : there's a mean to get also the protected fields ? I'll investigate the 5250 planes. -- Ing.
