Example

The following example shows the onSystemMessage method which is used to handle QAnywhere system messages. The message type is compared to MessageType.NETWORK_STATUS_NOTIFICATION.

private void onSystemMessage(QAMessage msg) {
    QATextMessage   t_msg;
    MessageType     msg_type;
    String          network_adapters;
    String          network_names;
    String          network_info;

    t_msg = (QATextMessage)msg;
    if(t_msg != null) {
  	    // Evaluate message type.
  	    msg_type = (MessageType)t_msg.GetIntProperty( MessageProperties.MSG_TYPE );
        if(msg_type == MessageType.NETWORK_STATUS_NOTIFICATION) {
            // Handle network status notification...
        }
    }
}
