Re: Timeout/Cancel

Reading the help text for the system value QDEVRCYACN you can set this to *MSG
*MSG
Signals the I/O error message to the user's application program.
The application program performs error recovery.

I have not tested this but I would expect this option would work with ON-EXIT.

Has anyone tried/tested this to know what message and I presume it is an escape message with severity 40 or more ?

Cheers
Don

You can change the default to *ENDJOB so the job will be ended when a

I am able to automatically end a program when the screen sits idle for
a specific amount of time.

I am trying to have the same program end when the user clicks on the
Red X [The windows X].

I am not able to trap that condition successfully using %status or
Monitor. When I test it, the job goes to DSC status. When I sign on to
that display session again and enter an option 1 to attach to the
prior job, my logic then runs and handles the prior Cancel. However,
it leaves the files and job open until the user reattaches.

Has anyone been able to have an RPG program gracefully end when the
user clicks the windows Red X?

Thank you,

Doug
