SendPacket(31.0) ARP Programmers Manual SendPacket(31.0)
NAME
SendPacket - Send a packet to DOS.
SYNOPSIS
Result1 = SendPacket( Action, Args, Handler)
d0 d0 a0 a1
FUNCTION
Sends an AmigaDOS packet to a handler. This function will
Wait(), if necessary, until the Handler returns the packet.
It cannot therefore be used for asynchronous I/O. This
function uses the processes message port, and it will call
the pr_PktWait function if this is installed.
INPUTS
Action - the action you wish this packet to cause.
Args - Pointer to an array of seven long words which specify
the arguments to send with the packet. This may be
NULL, in which case the arguments will be set to
zero.
Handler - The address of the msgport of the handler you wish
to receive this packet.
RESULT
Result1 - This function returns the result1 field of the
returned packet. Res2 is available in register D1
for assembly language programmers, or by calling
IoErr().
BUGS
None known.
