Example
In This Topic
    WaitForHostSettle2 Method
    In This Topic
    Waits for host screen data to settle (that is, there is no incoming data for the specified settle time).
    Syntax
    expression.WaitForHostSettle2( _
       ByVal settleTime As Integer, _
       ByVal timeout As Integer _
    ) As ReturnCode
    where expression is a variable that represents a Screen Object

    Parameters

    settleTime
    The settle time (in milliseconds).
    timeout
    wait timeout value (milliseconds). Value of 0 indicates wait indefinitely.

    Return Value

    One of the following ReturnCode enumeration values.

    Member Description
    Cancelled Cancelled.
    Error Error.
    PermissionRequired Permission is required.
    Success Success.
    Timeout Timeout condition.
    Truncated The text is truncated.

    Remarks

    The wait timeout value should be greater than settleTime. The keyboard is disabled.

    If you know which strings your host returns, consider using the waitForStrings method. This method is more efficient than using a set time to wait for the host to respond.

    Example

    This sample uses the WaitForHostSettle2 method to navigate.

    To run this sample in the Reflection demo, create a VT session with the host name set to "demo:unix" and log in with any credentials. Then run the macro after you log in.

    Sub NavigateWithWaitForHostSettle2()
     
        Dim returnValue As Integer
        
        ThisScreen.SendKeys "demodata"
        ThisScreen.SendControlKey ControlKeyCode_Return
        
        returnValue = ThisScreen.WaitForHostSettle2(2000, 3000)
        ThisScreen.SendKeys "exit"
        ThisScreen.SendControlKey ControlKeyCode_Return
        
        returnValue = ThisScreen.WaitForHostSettle2(2000, 3000)
        ThisScreen.SendKeys "ls"
        ThisScreen.SendControlKey ControlKeyCode_Return
     
    End Sub
