Re: Permanent I/O Error occured to DSPF

Terry,

Actually Simon's been working with me off-list.

The problem turn out to be that I did indeed have more that 256 input
capable fields defined on the screen at once. Basically, on a 27x132
screen I had a 15 row subfile with 17 fields plus 4 fields at the top
of the screen...17*15+4 = 259.

I didn't realize that each subfile row was counted separately. Though
it makes sense now that I know. <grin>

Terry,

I'm not sure how to use STRSDA option(3) given the subfile. Testing a
record other than the subfile or subfile control, seems to work (even
with those to listed as "additional records to display". But when I
try to test the subfile or subfile control record, I get an error
about SFLRCDNBR not being correct.

At command line issue the command STRSDA OPTION(3). System presents
panel "Test Display File"

Enter
Display file = FV011PP
Library = whatever
Record to be tested = ZFM1
System presents panel "Set Separate Indicators Area"

Type '1' beside '05'. System presents panel "Set Test Output Data".

Under heading 'Value' for field ZRD1, type "0001:" without the question
marks. System shows your subfile.

Also, it'd take some work to figure out what all the indicators
settings should be.

Here's the full source, but beware, it is generated code.
http://code.midrange.com/dd884c0071.html

I have tested the dspf using STRSDA 3, as I outlined above. I have also
written a minimal RPG program to exercise the subfile, and it runs
without hangup. Of course, if I put x'01' in the middle of field
S000IV, I can provoke CPF5192 with negative response code 1005012B and
the resulting RNX1215. The system accepted all writes to the subfile
record and only raised the error on the READ to the subfile control
record.

I have managed so far not to learn to read the 5250 data stream, so I
cannot give you help in that direction. How about ...
(*) look at each S000IV in interactive debugger
(*) twenty-five (maybe only 15 times), on your input file, do CPYF
INCCHAR(*RCD <position> *LT X'40'). Or something, depending on your
code page.

I wish I could be more helpful.

Cheers,
Terry.

Ok,

I added some code to '-' fill the fields but I still get the same error.

I'm not sure rather to feel better or worse...but apparently the x'00'
fill of the field was in keeping with the specs. Of course, now I'm
back to were I started....

Charles,

Is STRSDA OPTION(3) happy with the file?

Can you share the dspf with us?

Cheers,
Terry.
