RE: Interacting with an interactive job from WDSci/erro r messages in WDSci

Wim,

Glad to hear you figured out the problem.  If there are any inquiry
messages issued when running your interactive program via the STRRSESVR
connection then they are displayed in the emulator (for example, opening a
file that is not in the library list.)  However, if an escape message is
issued then the interactive job catches it and ignores it (although it
should still be shown in the job log.)  This is the scenario that you were
seeing.

We are working on making this message handling better and you will start to
see some improvements in this area in the next release (still can't say
when that is : )

Found the 'error' at last... Don, thank you for your reaction (you pointed
in the right direction) but is was an 'iSeries-issue'. The profile I used
to
log-on to the iSeries didn't have the correct libraries in the library
list.
So the program stopped running, and I didn't have the possibility (in the
debug perspective) to run or release the job. It didn't give me any error
messages either, not on the WDSci-side anyway. First I checked things like
WDSci-PTF's and so on, until I finaly checked the job log from the
interactive job I used. I should have done so right away; there it gave me
the right error message: unable to find the *SRVPGM! So it was not a
WDSci-thing I missed, it was a simple *LIBL-issue.... Shame on me!

So I change the question... Did I overlook the correct error message in
WDSci? As far as I can see, it isn't in the iSeries Commands Log!

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Interacting with an interactive job from WDSci


Good morning!

My name is Wim van den Heuvel. I am exploring the possibilities of WDSci,
and am getting very enthousiast about most of the features. Since a couple
of days I am working on how to debug an interactive program. I started the
Deamon from RSE, and started the RSESVR-job on the iSeries. The IBM RSE
Communications Server job is started and associated to WDSci. I created a
simple program in free format ILE RPG, which contains of a module calling a
second module in a service program. Within the first module a 5250-display
should be presented. However, in the 5250-screen it shows the prompt from
the call-command (? CALL PGM(SAMPLE), but when I press <enter> the IBM RSE
Communications Server-screen is displayed again, telling me my command has
completed. It never showed the first screen from my program!

I am working with WebSphere Development Studio Client Advanced Edition for
iSeries, Version: 5.1, Build id: 20030908_2154 , checked and loaded the
PTF's from www.IBM.com/software/awdtools/studioappdev/support
Anyone any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,
