Hello Bob,

I MESSED up the descriptions.? The subject for this thread goes with my adding trace 'e'

The DMSIPT error goes with the package and call REXXUTIL.

It sounds like this mystery code is a REXX function package from a non-VM system.

If that is true, then the best we could do here would be to fail more gracefully.?

The DLMALLOC msg indicates a storage problem to me. Perhaps an overlay.

Bert,

As far as I can tell the sys functions are an add-on package on all CMS.

On LCM+l which is a later VM/CMS but not real iron, it fails gracefully, but support for external functions was only just added to 1.1.2.

Lets see what Bob says, he is on a different time zone.

Dave,

So none of the sys functions exist in CMS REXX???

?

Should REXX blow up this way?? How did it blow up on your real iron system?

?

I'm not sure REXX is ready for what I need.? Sys functions are basic to me.

What makes you think RxFuncQuery and RxFunctionAdd work in CMS?

It also fails on the SP5 system at LCM+L

Hello,

?

On the earlier problem, I decided to add some tracing to determine the line causing the DMSIPT143T error.? What I got was:

?

DLMALLOC PANIC LINE 3503

ABNORMAL TERMINATION (NO RESOURCE CLEANUP) ERROR 430 DLMalloc aborted.

Ready (00012);

?

The program now looks like

/* */

trace 'e'

? ? ?if RxFuncQuery( 'SysLoadFuncs' ) <> 0 then
? ? ? ? ?do
? ? ? ? ? ? call RxFuncAdd 'SysLoadFuncs', 'REXXUTIL', 'SysLoadFuncs'
? ? ? ? ? ? call SysLoadFuncs
? ? ? ? end
a = 0
do forever

? say a
? if a//20 = 0 then do
? ? 'cls'
? ? rc = syssleep(1)
? ? end
? end

P.S. Where should I report this problem (e.g. URL) and should it be against REXX or CMS or ????

Thank you.

Bert,

Neither! EE behaves exactly the same as XEDIT does “out of the box”. If you want NULLS then you need to have “NULLS ON” in your PROFILE EE file.

Hello,

?

I understand how the 3270 works with regards to various VM editors.? It is my memory that with XEDIT and EDGAR I could do an insert without doing an Erase EOF.

?

Maybe they put nulls and not spaces, as my memory recalls the insert key worked without any additional work.

?

Does anyone else remember how XEDIT worked in this regard?? Maybe the additional question is how should EE work?? IMHO, being able to use the insert key is an advantage.

That's the way the 3270 behaves. I don't know if there's a way to tell EE to use nulls instead of spaces to fill the screen, like you can with ISPF, but basically, you have to have nulls in a field to do an insert?like that. YOu can replace the spaces at the end of the line by positioning your cursor after the last character and hitting alt-E, which is the Erase EOF key. That will replace everything from the cursor to the end of the field (which, in EE, is the endo fhte line) with nulls, and INSERT will work. If you delete characters, the remaining ones in the field will shift left and a null will be inserted at the end of the field, so you can get some room to insert that way as well if that's what you need to do.

?

Remember, the 3270's editing functions?are all local to the terminal, so none of this is sent directly to EE. It simply sees the changed line once you hit ENTER.

Hello,

?

When editing (using EE) the earlierly discussed program (TEST EXEC A), I kept getting on the WC3270 screen and "OVERFLOW" error, when trying to insert characters.

?

An example is:

?

1. I edit a file with the following line in it:

?

Now is the time for al good men to come to the aid of their VM/CE system.

?

I move my cursor to the "al" and press the insert button.? I press the lower case L key.? Instead of the lower case L appearing, I see in the lower left hand corner of the screen "OVERWRITE"? I can't type anything on the line.

?

I noticed if I delete characters, I CAN INSERT BUT only up to the original length on the screen for that specific line.

?

Again I'm not sure if this is an EE issue or WC3270.

Thank you,
