Re: [ql-users] Event help in C68?
I would like to refloat this (seems that a couple of people missed these questions last weekend). Below is my original request for help on eventlists and communicating between jobs. I did get the note to look at Jonathan's CSM and will do so. But any advice on using events such as the pointer environment is set up to do would be great.

I could use some assistance in using C68 in the pointer environment in passing an event from one job to another, which I can not currently get to work. I have tried two scenarios. 1) using sms_sevt and sms_wevt - I used the job ID received back as an integer from sms_info for each job . when these were checked they matched the job ID listed with the SBASIC command jobs but did not include any tag info, etc. ? is this the correct job id to use in these calls? If not, how can I obtain the correct ID? - I set the eventlist for sms_wevt = 0xFF so that it would accept any event sent it - sent an event with sms_sevt to the sms_wevt program - nothing received 2) using iop_rptr (enhanced for the upper 8 bits for vectors) and sms_sevt - same job ID as described in 1) - assumed that sms_sevt is actually using the upper 8 bits of the vector list that iop_rptr checks - sent event - nothing received (checked both upper and lower bytes) Can anyone help me with this? If not in C68, then in assembly. I should be able to match the two. I need to do this to communicate between my icon objects and their associated folder in QDT. Thanks, Jim
