- DEFINITION MODULE Break;
-
- (* (C) Copyright 1987 Fitted Software Tools. All rights reserved. *)
-
- (*
- This module allows the user to trap the Ctrl-Break (vector 1BH)
- interrupt and the DOS generated (vector 23H) Ctrl-C interrupt.
-
- Upon initialization, BREAK is disabled. Ths user program must
- call EnableBreak to allow processing of breaks.
-
- The break interrupt handlers check the DOS busy flag to prevent
- Ctrl-Break processing while in DOS.
-
- The default break handler simply terminates the program (ErrorLevel 6).
-
- DisableBreak is called before control is transfered to a user
- break handler. Should the user break handler procedure return,
- the program is terminated (ErrorLevel 6).
-
- Uses: To prevent the user from terminating the program via Ctrl-Break
- or Ctrl-C, just import this module.
-
- During program testing, it is useful to include this module and
- invoke EnableBreak; This allows the program to be aborted via
- Ctrl-Break, even if the program goes into a loop.
