NAME
BuildEasyRequestArgs -- Simple creation of system request. (V36)
BuildEasyRequest -- Varargs stub for BuildEasyRequestArgs(). (V36)
SYNOPSIS
ReqWindow = BuildEasyRequestArgs( RefWindow, easyStruct, IDCMP, Args )
D0 A0 A1 D0 A3
struct Window *BuildEasyRequestArgs( struct Window *,
struct EasyStruct *, ULONG, APTR );
ReqWindow = BuildEasyRequest( RefWindow, easyStruct, IDCMP, Arg1, ... )
struct Window *BuildEasyRequest( struct Window *,
struct EasyStruct *, ULONG, APTR, ... );
FUNCTION
This function is to EasyRequest() as BuildSysRequest() is to
AutoRequest(): it returns a pointer to the system requester
window. The input from that window can then be processed
under application control.
It is recommended that this processing be done with
SysReqHandler(), so that future enhancement to the
processing will be enjoyed.
After you have determined that the requester is satisfied or
cancelled, you must free this requester using FreeSysRequest().
Please see the autodoc for EasyRequest().
NOTE: This function switches the processor stack to ensure
sufficient stack space for the function to complete.
INPUTS
Window = reference window for requester: determines the
requester window title and screen.
easyStruct = pointer to EasyStruct structure, as described
in the EasyRequest() autodocs.
IDCMP = (NOT A POINTER) provided application specific IDCMP
flags for the system requester window.
Args = see EasyRequest()
RESULT
A pointer to the system request window opened. In the event
of problems, you may also be returned the value '0' which
is to be interpreted as the "FALSE, Cancel" choice, or
(if you have a second gadget defined) the value '1', which
is to be taken to mean the equivalent of your corresponding
left-most gadget.
If there is a problem creating the window, a recoverable alert may
be substituted for the requester, and the result, either 0 or 1,
returned.
BUGS
Does not put up alternative alert.
