Supressing the AS400 Sign-on Dialog...

["Prashant D. Tapkhirwala" <pdt333@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello All,

I have the construct as follows:

m_AS400 = new AS400(HostName, sUsername, sPassword);

m_AS400.setGuiAvailable(false);

return m_AS400.validateSignon();

The sUserName and sPassword are retrieved from a configuration store.


However when I execute the 1st statement, it pops up the sign-on dialog, I 
would like to get an exception if the logon failed, and then I can trap that 
and give a suitable warning to my clients. My problem is that I am running 
server code and it would not be nice for this pop up to start and user not 
being aware of it.

I guess one of the solutions mentioned on the internet was to use the 
m_AS400.setGuiAvailable(false) but, I need to tell the AS400 constructor to 
give me an exception if the log on failed without popping the sign-on dialog. 

Does anyone have a sollution to this?
