User Profile Options in the Control File

The TERMINAL-PRINTER and LOGICAL-TERMINAL-NAME fields correspond to

the SCREEN COBOL special registers of the same names. The five USER-PROFILE-n

fields are new special registers in the applet; these fields have no corresponding special

registers in SCREEN COBOL programs. Java definitions of the special registers are

given under Special-Register Classes

on page 6-112.

After the applet has received the values of these special registers from the NonStop

Himalaya host, the applet uses the values during execution, just as a SCREEN COBOL

requester does.

User Profile Options in the Control File

Whether an end user is required to enter a password or a user profile is controlled by the

userAuthenticate and getProfile parameters in the control file that is generated by the

CONVERT command. The encoding parameter specifies which byte-to-string

conversion scheme the applet should use.

The control file is named appname_CONTROL.html or

initprog_CONTROL.html and contains the following:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Content-Type" content="text/html;

charset=iso-8859-1">
