messageModeSendBytes()

messageModeSendBytes

void messageModeSendBytes(byte[ ] s, int offset, int len, boolean passTurn)

This method bypasses the Glink emulation and sends a byte array directly to the

host. Several data buffers may be sent without giving up the turn. The passTurn

flag is used to signal that this is the end of the data and that the turn should be

passed to the host side.

The data is assumed to be in the host native character set.

Turn-issues:

Please note that the concept of turn is only well defined for the following

communications protocols:

G&R Ggate

G&R DGA

Bull GTEA

TNVIP

TN3270

TN5250

For other communications protocols (such as Telnet, raw TCP/IP and Minitel)

the passTurn argument is ignored. In these cases you may have to add a go-

ahead indicator to your data if you want to pass the turn to the host, such as ETX

(0x03) or Carriage Return (0x0D).

Parameters:

s - String of characters to sent to the host.

offset - starting index to send from.

len - number of bytes to send.

passTurn - Send the data to the host with the turn.
