Logging Screen Text Before Each Attempt to Send Keystrokes

1. var file = new java.io.File(”<filename>’);var writer = new java.io.BufferedWriter(new java.io.FileWriter(file));writer.write(hostAccess.getScreen());writer.flush();

2. hostAccess.sendKeysAndWait(<cmd>,<msg>);

3. writer.newLine();

4. writer.write(hostAccess.getScreen());

5. writer.flush();

6. writer.close();

   <filename> should reference a the location of a file on the local file system of the application server. The writer will open a handle to that location and write what is stored in it’s buffer when the flush() method is invoked. The close() method releases the handle to the file. The getScreen() method is useful to pass to this function to get a dump of the screen contents for debugging purposes. This tracing should, of course, be removed once the screens are successfully navigated and login / logout is performed successfully.
