Hey Guys, I have finally decided to join this list as my work on QDT progresses (thanks Marcel for recommending that I try this). Was putting it off due to time constraints but now seems like a good time with a cry or two for help.
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
