Is there any way to get the parameters that were passed to pending
messages?
What I want to do is suspend pending messages when a stack is suspended
and then reinstate them when the stack is resumed. I just realized
pendingMessages() only gives the message name, not any of the parameters.
Any help would be appreciated!
I think the best you can do is store the parameters (or whatever useful info
you need to key on) in a global or script-local array, keyed on the message ID.
If you're doing this a lot, you might want to buffer it by using your own
handler wrapped round the "send" command, eg
on mySend tMessage, tDestination, tWhen
global gaMessageID2message
do "send tMessage to" && tDestination && "in" && tWhen
get the result -- should be the message id
put tMessage into gaMessageID2message[it]
end mySend
Your normal use could be something like:
mySend "foo bar", "me", "3 seconds"
then when you're suspended, something like this
put the pendingMessages into gSuspendedMessages
repeat for each line tRec in gSuspendedMessages
cancel message id (item 1 of tRec)
end repeat
and when you're resumed:
repeat for each line tRec in gSuspendedMessages
put item 1 of tRec into iOldMessageID
put (some calculation based on item 2 of tRec) into tWhen
mySend gaMessageID2message[iOldMessageID], (item, 4 of tRec), tWhen
end repeat
NB all the above typed into email, not Rev, and some of it pseudo-code...
Obviously, depending on your actual situation you may be able to do something
more elegant, eg if this only applies for something with a long and ugly
destination expression, it might be easier not to have to make that into a
properly quoted up string.
