This is mostly hypothetical - I'm trying to figure something out. I have a C API that I am working with that has iterator calls that invoke a callback function. I would like to invoke an (Un)icon call corresponding to each invocation of the callback function. The call to Icon code does
not have to occur synchronously. Presumably I would load and execute the C code using stubs built into a library and using loadfunc(libfile,libfunc) The most straightforward way that I can think of to do this is to have an event monitor [Icon Technical Report 93-21] receive an artificial event generated by event(code, value, recipient) [Section 5.4 of ITR 93-21] and queue the event till the C code has returned and the invoker of the C code is ready to de-queue and process the results. Is there a simpler or better way to do this? ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
