[Tn5250j-general] Still here
Hi Kenneth, How are you? I'm also still around - although I didn't develop anything, you built some stuff for me into TN5250j back then. I'm also still using it day in day out and promoting it to my colleagues. - - Kind regards, Marc Vos PS: I only have two issues with TN5250j: 1) On the Mac. On Windows TN5250j runs great. But on the Mac, under Leopard, it starts, does a bit of what I want and then just stops working. It does't quit though, it just loses connection somehow and doesn't seem to know it. The screen goes blank and that was it then. 2) The selection rectangle. I use a white background for my iSeries sessions and I don't see the selection rectangle, because it's white too. I haven't found a color setting for it, either. So, is it possible to make the color of the selection rectangle the opposite of the background color? Black for light backgrounds, white for dark backgrounds? -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Tn5250j-general mailing list Tn5250j-general@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/tn5250j-general

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Updates
Kenneth, great to hear your back. My client is still using TN on Windows and Linux everyday and have pretty abandoned Client access all together with the exception of Ops Nav of course. Everyone there is very happy with it and I have a bunch of feature request/bug reports I have to get to on the mailing list. To everyone on the list, is there collective time to maybe kick start the TN project again? I know of a few bug report I need to file as well as a few feature request that I have been getting. There has been some Java specific issues and the such. I know there was talk of a code clean up and a 1.0 release in the past. Just a thought. Thanks! Rich ++ Best regards, -Richard Houston -R.L.H.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Updates
Hey all. Just wanted to take this time to say hi to all of the others out there that wrote. Christian, Patrick, Mark and Richard. Not sure how much time I am going to be able to spend as just wanted to get Martin started for right now. Like I said before I am on the as400 side of an e-banking project writing web services. Their schedule is damn tight and if I may say so a little un realistic but that is not my place nor what they are paying me for. With the xml4rpg product the as400 side will definitely be in on time thank goodness. I had three webservices defined and coded in two days. It seems, in Europe anyway, they are cutting rates and pressuring big time. Hey that is what happens in this type of economy. Of course I am using tn5250j and what stands out so far is the key mapping with a java 6 vm. I guess this was a problem with 5 as well correct? Richard L.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Updates
Hello Kenneth, My name is Ewart de Souza I've been hooked on to TN5250j for Windows ever since I came to know of it. I love the font selection. The only problem I have is that I find it quite unstable as it just hangs (at least once a day). Can something be done about it ? This may sound funny I may be wrong, but it may also be a clue - I've noticed that this happens when the enter key is pressed immediately after any other key without any time lag. Because of this unstability I am not recommending this to my colleagues who use Client Access. It would be great if it is possible to clear the area within a marked block on the screen. Keep up the good work.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Updates
Hello Patrick, Thanks for the reply. I don't remember doing any compilation. I just downloaded the windows version from the sourceforge site installed it. I have always been using Ctl-C, but just the text gets copied to memory but it doesn't get cleared from the screen - that's how it is supposed to work ! I think there should be another option to clear the text from within the marked area - as in Client Access.

I had the same problem when i compiled and runned it on java 6 so only for tn5250j we still use the old java 1.4.2 to keep it run smoothly.

Re: [Tn5250j-general] Updates
Hello Patrick, Thanks again. This is exactly what I wanted Kenneth to do i.e. create a new version of TN5250j that will use the latest jar files not 'hang'. Also to make provision for clearing the marked area on screen. Hopefully Kenneth is listening so I'll wait till a new version comes up - till then I'm happy with what I've got !!

I don't remember doing any compilation. I just downloaded the windows version from the sourceforge site installed it. Yeah, that is what i mean, if you just download and install you are running it on the latest java 1.6, cause that is the jvm that is actual these days. So to avoid the problem you have i have installed java 1.4.2 and call the program with C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_12\bin\javaw.exe -jar C:\Program Files\TN5250j\tn5250j.jar to avoid the lockups you are getting. I have always been using Ctl-C, but just the text gets copied to memory but it doesn't get cleared from the screen - that's how it is supposed to work ! Indeed, and it should work that way, and that is how it works perfectly when i use 1.4.2, cause tn5250j was builded with that java version. If i build it using 1.6.0 aka 6.0 then i have continues freezes of the screens, very anoying. I think there should be another option to clear the text from within the marked area - as in Client Access. Well no, ctrl-c should remove the marked area after it copies the text to memory.
