    WeakDeviceControlString Property
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets the device control string state.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    
    Property WeakDeviceControlString As Boolean
    'Usage
     
    
    Dim instance As ITerminal
    Dim value As Boolean
     
    instance.WeakDeviceControlString = value
     
    value = instance.WeakDeviceControlString
    bool WeakDeviceControlString {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The default value is true.
    Remarks
    When this property is set to true, a device control string can be terminated by any of the characters that interrupt escape sequences and control functions. These characters are CAN (decimal 24), SUB (decimal 26), and ESC (decimal 27). This is the same behavior as the terminals in the VT200 through VT400 series, except the VT320.

    When this property is set to false, Reflection matches the behavior of the VT320 terminal, and a device control string can be terminated only by the string terminator character (decimal 156). Use this property if you need Reflection to behave like an actual VT320 terminal (for example, if you need to pass control characters as part of a sequence that would otherwise terminate the sequence).
