Error description
HATS RCP - When a customer defines a 5250 input field as a radio button widget the default button that is selected is sometimes the first item and at other times it is the last item in the list, even though there was no selection made from the host.
Local fix
Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: HATS Rich Client Platform users that define * * input field to be a radio button widget * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: When a customer defines a 5250 input * * field as a radio button widget in a * * Rich Client Platform environment the * * default button selected is the last * * item in the group, even though there * * was no selection made by the host or * * by the user. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** The initial focus code for Rich Client Platform does not take into account radio button groups and always set focus to the last item in the group regardless of which option was the correct default selection.
Problem conclusion
The initial focus code was changed in TemplateTransformationHandler.java. Now, this code will first check for Button widgets of type SWT.RADIO and SWT.CHECK. Then, if either radio or check box is detected as the initial focus the code will call getSelection to check if a specific radio or check box is selected. If it is, then control and initial focus will be set to that item. If no item is found then then there will be no selection made in the Radio button group.
