</div>
<p>The Write to Display (QsnWTD) API issues a Write to Display (WTD) command. A
WTD command is used to indicate the beginning of a series of output operations.
For most of the DSM screen output operations, the control unit requires that a
WTD be issued prior to the actual operation itself, in the same I/O operation.
Multiple output operations can be sent with a given WTD command by using a
command buffer. For direct operations, such output APIs, implicitly issue a WTD
command. For indirect operations, a WTD is added to the buffer if one does not
exist already. Each time a WTD command is received, the control unit implicitly
sets the display address to row 1, column 1, prior to issuing the
operation.</p>
<p>For example, if two direct QsnWrtDta operations are performed in succession
and the second operation does not specify the row and column parameters, the
data is written to row 1, column 1, and not the display address following the
first QsnWrtDta operation. If two indirect QsnWrtDta operations are issued to
an empty command buffer, the first QsnWrtDta operation causes a WTD command to
be added to the buffer, but the second QsnWrtDta operation can use the existing
command. In this case, if no row and column are specified, the display address
used for the second operation will be the one after the first operation is
issued. If an intervening operation that does not require a WTD, such as a
QsnClrScr or a QsnSetErr, is added to the command buffer between two operations
that do require a WTD command, a second WTD command is added to the buffer for
the second operation.</p>
<p>The screen output APIs that require a WTD command and that correspond to the
WTD command <strong>orders</strong> (as described in 5250 Functions Reference,
SA21-9247) are as follows:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Set Output Address (QsnSetOutAdr)</p>
<p>Write Data (QsnWrtDta)</p>
<p>Write Transparent Data (QsnWrtTDta)</p>
<p>Pad for N Positions (QsnWrtPad)</p>
<p>Pad between Two Screen Addresses (QsnWrtPadAdr)</p>
<p>Set Field (QsnSetFld)</p>
<p>Set Cursor Address (QsnSetCsrAdr)</p>
<p>Insert Cursor (QsnInsCsr)</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The cursor position is not affected if the keyboard is unlocked when command
processing begins and is not locked during command processing, or if a
parameter error is detected. If specified by control character byte 1, the
cursor will be moved to the insert cursor or default location when the keyboard
is unlocked.</p>
<p>This operation corresponds directly to the 5250 Write to Display command. If
this is an indirect operation, this operation will issue a new WTD command to
the command buffer.</p>
<br>
<h3>Authorities and Locks</h3>
<p>None</p>
<br>
<h3>Required Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Control character byte 1</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(1)
<p>The operation for the display to perform prior to processing the Write to
Display command. See <a href="dsm1e.htm#HDRCC">Control Characters</a> for a
description of the control character values.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Control character byte 2</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; CHAR(1)
<p>The operation for the display to perform after the Write to Display command
has been processed. See <a href="dsm1f.htm#HDRCC">Control Characters</a> for a
description of the control character values.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Omissible Parameter Group</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Command buffer handle</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>A handle for the command buffer in which to store the command. If this
parameter is omitted or specified as 0, this is a direct operation and the
command is sent to the display. Otherwise, this is an indirect operation and
the command is stored in the command buffer without an I/O operation taking
place.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Low-level environment handle</strong></dt>
<dd>INPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>The low-level environment that the operation applies to. If this parameter
is omitted or given with a value of zero, the default low-level environment is
used.</p>
</dd>
<dt><strong>Error code</strong></dt>
<dd>I/O; CHAR(*)
<p>The structure in which to return error information. For the format of the
structure, see <a href="../apiref/error.htm#hdrerrcod">Error Code Parameter</a>. If this
parameter is omitted, diagnostic and escape messages are issued to the
application.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<br>
<h3>Returned Value</h3>
<dl>
<dt><strong>Return code</strong></dt>
<dd>OUTPUT; BINARY(4)
<p>A return code indicating the result of the operation. The value returned
will be 0 if the operation was successful, or -1 otherwise.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
