Subject: RE: Screen Refresh
Sounds simple enough and the example in the CL programming
manual SC41-5721-02 looks pretty basic but something's not
working. When I press Enter or any function key, it doesn't put anything
in the data queue.
The display file was created w/ the DTAQ parameter and
DFTWRT(*NO).
I've created the data queue prior to
calling the program.
I write the screen - WRITE
RECORD
Then, I call the QRCVDTAQ program to receive
the data queue with a wait time of 120.
When I press
Enter or any function key, it just stays at the screen and nothing happens
until the 120 seconds expires. Nothing gets put into the data queue
either.
What am I missing? I don't see if from the manual.
The only thing it mentions is INVITE but when I put that in at the file level,
I receive an error message.

Yes. Override the display file to a data queue and then read
the data
queue in your program. You can specify a
timeout value for the data
queue. If the user presses
Enter or a function key you will be able to
tell from
the data queue contents and you can then read the display
file. If the data queue read length is zero you know it's timed out
and
you can refresh the display or whatever.
