Other Messages
A full-screen automation program must be able to handle BNH150I and other
returned messages from VET NEXT and VET CURRENT.
For example, you might try to ATTACH a VOST and run a command that does not
display a full-screen. Messages that result from the command being entered on an
end-user screen are returned to the full-screen application.
If both a full-screen and messages are presented by the application running on the
VOST, a VET first stage presents both BNH150I and other messages to the output
stream. The order in which these messages are presented depends on how the
application generates them. For example, if the application first issues two
messages and then presents a full screen, the messages are returned to VET first,
then BNH150I with the full-screen information. However, if the application
presents a full screen and then messages, the messages are held until the
full-screen portion of the application terminates. Only after the full screen
terminates are the messages returned to VET.
In the example shown in Figure 21 on page 329, message BNJ924I is returned from
a VET NEXT ROWS in addition to BNH150I containing the NPDA-01A panel.
NPDA-01A and BNJ924I resulted from ATTACH NPDA SD NODOM.
