Change Notes

WTC.347 - Automatic host connection and setting LU / Device ID using URL query string

A new feature allows immediate connection to a host definition ID and optionally an LU Name / Device ID passed in on the URL query string.

For example: https://server/fjterm/?AutoConnectionName=MainframeProd&AutoConnectionNow=&AutoLuName=EXMPLU1

AutoConnectionName must be set to the Definition Name (found in the Host Definition in FJManage).

AutoConnectionNow must be set for the connection to connect automatically. It can simply be present (as in the example above), or set to yes or true.

The AutoLuName is optional. If it is present, the connection will use the given value to set the LU Name (3270) or Device ID (5250).

WTC.317 - Fixed handling of IND$FILE append and new flags

3270 IND$FILE Append and New file flags are correctly applied during an upload.

The user interface has been updated so that it correctly only allows the user to select only one of Append, Replace or New.

WTC.329 - Fixed logging before logging client was ready

When a host session was first connected, if client logging was in debug mode, the first log message would fail. This was because the session log had not yet been established. This has been fixed in this release. Any log message is held until the session log is available.

WTC.350 - Fixed incorrect null handling in wrapped entry fields

In some edge cases, using [BACKSPACE] or some of field clearing action, in a field that wraps the screen, could result in nulls being embedded between non-null characters. This is not a valid value. The host could misinterpret what value was being sent. This has been fixed in this version.

WTC.351 - Fixed incorrect insertion of unsupported space character

In some edge cases, using [BACKSPACE] or some of field clearing action, could result in HTML &nbsp characters being evaluated into a non-compatible white space character. The host could misinterpret what value was being sent. This has been fixed in this version.
