News in NetPhantom 3.1 GUI-on-the-fly. Host session pooling. Dynamic table CGI for HTML applications. New JDBC sample (both Java Client and as HTML application). Full Euro symbol support in both EBCDIC and OEM code pages. Support for Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 for HTML applications. New packaging and native controller programs when running NetPhantom in AS/400 Version 4.5 or better using JDK 1.3. OneLogin featuring single-login for the same user for multiple connections with a NetPhantom Java Client. Cursor positioning in host terminal screen using the mouse. New performance measurement-enabling tools: TelnetTracer combined with TelnetPlayback. These utilities are the foundation for being able to simulate a host environment of several hundreds or thousands of concurrent users to a host system. Stress-test clients with or without Java GUI (Stress and StressNoGUI), runs several concurrent clients to the same server with minimal resource requirements. These utilities can be used to "emulate" a use environment on few fast computers of several hundreds or even thousands of normal clients. Server Administration enhanced with "Client ping" in the Statistics panel used to measure the server responsiveness. This feature is typically used when doing performance measurements of a NetPhantom Server. New function under Server Administration menu item "Server - Thread usage" displaying the currently running threads for each client. This enhancement eases problem determination, typically when having application with a lot of "REXX Applications". Performance enhancement for incomming Web or Java Client requests in the Server when being heavily loaded by many Java Clients or simultaneous browser requests. Certain kernel function in NetPhantom rewritten for optimal performance in conjunction with most Just-in-time-compilers for the Java Virtual Machine 1.3. This results in a better overall performance when a server drives many clients. New setting to enable native class loading of REXX-converted code in Java classes, option "useNativeClassLoader=1" in [base] section in "server.ini". Note that application reload does not reload the class files with this option. For AS/400, this is a performance enhancement, other platforms does not show great improvements in load speed. New options for HTML document parsing in server.ini: htmlWriterIndenting: should paresed HTML code be indented or not, default is no indent. htmlWriterPreserveSpaces: should parsed HTML code preserve or strip spaces from source HTML. New serializer Xerces 1.3 from Apache in the OpenXML package (conforms to JAXP specifications). @**HOST@ special variable now supported in NetPhantom for e.g. REXX function PanGetText. New REXX function rc=ShowDocument(url,target) that displays an URL in a browser window (default target is "_blank", i.e. a new browser window). Spin button enhanced to support same functions as a combobox, e.g. REXX function PanListXxx and VirtualInterface functions such as insertLine, setLine. Server User Windows can now be global and application local (first APPNAME.serverUserWindow.MODULE_PROCEDURE is loaded, and if this fails serverUserWindow.MODULE_PROCEDURE will be tried). Function HostHideSession sets a different text in terminal window on client side. NetPhantom Client JAR files are now signed by Entra for use with Java 2 with a certificate from Thawte. 3270 host printing for LU3 printing fully functional. The mail utility will now take host name from system properties. This can be done by setting System-Property("mail.host") from the command line in the following name: java -Dmail.host=hostname.   News in NetPhantom 3.0 News in NetPhantom 2.1 News in NetPhantom 2.0
