Message1. Push button "pushed" without being pushed
#13307
Posted by: Michael S 2010-04-14 20:41:27
I realise it's a strange topic header, but I'll try and describe the scenario. We use a product called Beyond Compare here. It allows you to define an exit so you can "massage" your file before it's shown. I use a reginald exe to change the contents of my mainframe files from EBCDIC to ANSI.

One of the problems is for fixed length files. They are simply a looooooooong string of data - you have to know the length of each record. To that end, my reginald exe discovers the file is fixed length and shows a window that prompts the user for the record length. All well and good, until .... there seems to be some sort of memory/code problem (or whatever) left over after the first time I run it (which runs with no problem).

If I run  BC with my reginald exe exit too quickly consecutively, the reginald window is shown, but it's as if I'd pressed OK immediately (without my having done it).

Any suggestions ??

I include the relevant window code

/*
GUIBEGIN


WINDOW , 347, 108, 431, 41, POPUP|CAPTION|SYSMENU|THICK, , Specify the LRECL of the file
	FONT 8, 400, MS Shell Dlg
	TEXT 13, 16, 360, 8, GROUP, , filename_text, , Filename
	ENTRY 384, 14, 32, 12, H_AUTO|BORDER|TABSTOP, CLIENTEDGE, lrecl_entry
	PUSH 384, 29, 40, 9, DEFAULT|HIDE|TABSTOP, , ok_button, , OK
DEND
GUIEND
*/

general code TO check the file's record length etc

Message2. Okay - here's a simple scenario that illustrates the point

Run the the attached script. - when the guisay prompt comes up, press enter rather than clicking on the OK button - you'll see that the window after that simply flashes past. Now try the same thing but click on the OK button instead and the window will be shown and will wait for your input.

Is there some sort of guisendmsg I should be using to clear out some buffer ??
