Hi James,
I'm thinking that a given front end could ask lib5250 for a list of
configured systems in tn5250rc. As well, being able to specify an
arbitrary hostname or IP address might be nice.
I wrote something like that at one time (something that enumerates the
configuration profiles). I used it in a different project that interfaces
with lib5250 -- but it could probably be put into lib5250 pretty easily.
I don't understand the "arbitrary hostname" bit. Don't we already have
the ability to specify an arbitrary hostname?
The lib5250 call that opens a stream is:
stream = tn5250_stream_open( "hostname", config)
Seems to me that you can specify an arbitrary hostname in that first
parameter.... But maybe I misunderstand what you're looking for.
