- ARexx Function Host Module and Demo
- Version 1.2
-
-
-
- This is a module which facilitates creating your own ARexx function
- hosts. This module will handle all of the detail work involved. All
- that your module needs to do is define some static data, an array of
- info about the functions, and the functions themselves.
-
-
- Why a function host? Mainly because these seem a bit easier to
- debug and to implement in 'C'. But there probably isn't much that
- a function host can do that a function library couldn't. One example
- that would be more difficult to do with a library is the scrollback
- window in my "report_host" program.
-
-
- This *might* compile under Aztec, if you remove all of the prototype
- stuff, and of course change the makefile, but it is written under
- Lattice 5.02.
-
-
- The best way to use this is to probably modify the rh_demo.c file
- with your own functions.
-
-
-
- ------------- Changes in Version 1.2 ---------------
-
- The only significant change is to add support for client code which
- needs to Wait() on some event. See the client_event_flags variable and
- the client_event_handler() function.
