X-Status:
Okay, now for a (perhaps) really silly question:
Can anyone assist me in how to use the combo of the fd-extension and identify.library?
The function I'm trying to use (in vain so far) is the IdHardware function. I've never
really tried to utilize system-calls in AMOS before so I'm quite stumped on
how I'm supposed to do this.
The systemcall is:
identify.library/IdHardware identify.library/IdHardware
NAME
IdHardware - get information about the system, string (V3)
SYNOPSIS
String = IdHardware(Type,TagList)
D0.l D0.l A0.l
STRPTR IdHardware(ULONG, struct TagItem *);
String = IdHardwareTags(Type,Tag1,...)
STRPTR IdHardwareTags(ULONG, ULONG,...);
FUNCTION
Gets information about the current system environment. The result
is returned as read only string. This function is fully DraCo
compatible!
Once a information has been read, it will be cached internally, so
changes will be ignored. Use IdHardwareUpdate() to clear the cache
contents.
INPUTS
Type -- (ULONG) Information type. These types are known:
IDHW_SYSTEM -- What system is used?
(e. g. "Amiga 4000")
If you take a look with the tokenlist program that's shipped with one of the
craft-extensions, all parameters should be numerical. Any ideas?
