Return the status of the last waitForUpdate method.

 

HostScreen.waitForUpdateFlag

 

Arguments

 

HostScreen

 Required. HostScreen object.

 

Remarks

 

READONLY.

 

The possible return status values for the last waitForUpdate method are:

•"none"

•"changed"

•"timeout"

•"cancelled"

•"echo"

 

If "cancelled" it means that a monitor type connection was cancelled because a "real" connect has occurred. The monitor should cancel further activity.

 

A monitor type connection will return an "echo" when a quickSend occurs (from another connection). Note that a quickSend may also result in a "changed" status. Useful when creating a predictive client emulator in a VT type environment. Instead of having to redraw the entire screen, only the character/s sent using quickSend need be added to the display screen.
