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.
