ws3270 keyboard wrongly reported as unlocked in prompt-line #78

Closed feujun closed 3 months ago

feujun commented 3 months ago

Hi, this behaviour is present in s3270 4.3.6 (on Windows) onwards.

Describe the problem

When entering text into a protected field or a SF-field the keyboard is locked but the s3270-protocol prompt-line reports an unlocked keyboard like this:

U F U C(<HOST>) I 4 24 80 6 26 0x0 0.007

To Reproduce

Position the cursor on a protected / SF-field and enter any character. My setup to reproduce includes the commands:

  1. movecursor1(7,27)
  2. readbuffer(field) (to verify I am on the right cursor-position, a SF)
  3. string("x")

after execution of string("x") the emulator-output states:

data: Keyboard locked data: Operator error U F U C(<HOST>) I 4 24 80 6 26 0x0 0.007

Expected Behaviour

The keyboard is locked. The prompt-line should read L F U ... (like it did in 4.3.5 and before)

TRACE

Here is the trace-file for the 3 steps above if that helps:

If I can clarify anything else I will gladly do so :)
