About the 5250 Native Environment Pane
The 5250 Native Environment pane provides 5250 emulation of your AS/400
environment. From this pane, you can perform the following:
Map data from an Input XML document (or other available DOM) and use it
as input for a 5250 screen field. For example, you could drag a SKU number
from an input DOM into the part field of a 5250 screen, which would then
query the host and return data associated with that part number, such as
description and price.
Map the data from the returned 5250 screen and put it into an Output XML
document (or other available DOM, e.g., Temp, MyDom, etc.).
Map header and detail information (such as an invoice with multiple line
items) from an XML document into the transaction accessed in the native
environment pane using a special Multi-Row action.
Map header and detail information (such as customer name and transaction
history) from the transaction in the native environment pane into an XML
document.
The transaction functionality of the Native Environment pane is identical to that
of a 5250 terminal or terminal emulator.
