SMG$SET_BROADCAST_TRAPPING

The Enable Broadcast Trapping routine enables the trapping of broadcast messages.

Format

SMG$SET_BROADCAST_TRAPPING pasteboard-id [,AST-routine] [,AST-argument]


RETURNS


OpenVMS usage cond_value
type longword (unsigned)
access write only
mechanism by value


Arguments

pasteboard-id


OpenVMS usage identifier
type longword (unsigned)
access read only
mechanism by reference

Specifies the pasteboard for which broadcast messages are to be trapped. The pasteboard-id argument is the address of an unsigned longword that contains the pasteboard identifier.

Pasteboard-id is returned by SMG$CREATE_PASTEBOARD.

AST-routine


OpenVMS usage ast_procedure
type procedure value
access read only
mechanism by value

The address of an AST routine to be called when a message is received at the pasteboard. The AST-routine argument is the address of the routine's procedure value.

When the AST-routine argument is either omitted or is given a value of 0, the BROADCAST mode is set to synchronize. In this mode, you must periodically call SMG$GET_BROADCAST_MESSAGE to see if any broadcast messages have arrived.

The AST routine is called with five parameters: AST-argument, R0, R1, PC, and PSL (on VAX systems) or PS (on AXP systems).


AST-argument


OpenVMS usage user_arg
type longword (unsigned)
access read only
mechanism by value

A value to be passed to the AST routine. The AST-argument is an unsigned longword that contains the value to be passed to the AST routine.

Description

SMG$SET_BROADCAST_TRAPPING enables the trapping of broadcast messages sent to the specified pasteboard (terminal). When you disable broadcast trapping, any broadcast messages that have been queued to the terminal are lost. If you enable broadcast trapping with SMG$SET_BROADCAST_TRAPPING but do not disable it with SMG$DISABLE_BROADCAST_TRAPPING before the image exits, any messages that have been broadcast to the terminal are lost when the image exits.

The sysgen parameters DEFMBXBUFQUO and DEFMBXMXMSG are used when creating the mailbox that receives broadcast messages.


Condition Values Returned

SS$_NORMAL Normal successful completion.
SMG$_NOT_A_TRM Informational message; the pasteboard is not a terminal.
SMG$_INVPAS_ID Invalid pasteboard-id.
SMG$_WRONUMARG Wrong number of arguments.

Any condition values returned by $DASSGN, $CANCEL, or LIB$ASN_WTH_MBX.

Format

SMG$SET_CURSOR_REL display-id [,delta-row] [,delta-column]


RETURNS


OpenVMS usage cond_value
type longword (unsigned)
access write only
mechanism by value


Arguments

display-id


OpenVMS usage identifier

If delta-column is negative, the virtual cursor moves the specified number of columns to the left.

Description

SMG$SET_CURSOR_REL moves the virtual cursor the specified number of rows and columns relative to the current virtual cursor position. If the specified delta-row or delta-column causes the cursor to move outside the bounds of the virtual display, SMG$_INVROW or SMG$_INVCOL is returned.

Key-table-id is returned by the SMG$CREATE_KEY_TABLE routine.

new-state


OpenVMS usage char_string

old-state


OpenVMS usage char_string
type character string
access write only
mechanism by descriptor

Receives the existing default state name of the specified key definition table. The old-state argument is the address of a descriptor pointing to the string into which the old state string is written.

Description

SMG$SET_DEFAULT_STATE sets and/or returns the default state name for an entire key definition table. By changing the default state for an entire key definition table, you can use the keypad keys for a new set of functions. You can use the key definition table with the SMG$READ_COMPOSED_LINE routine.

Condition Values Returned

SS$_NORMAL Normal successful completion.
SMG$_INVKTB_ID Invalid key-table-id.
SMG$_INVSTANAM Invalid state name.

SMG$SET_DISPLAY_SCROLL_REGION

The Create Display Scrolling Region routine creates a virtual scrolling region in a virtual display.

Format

SMG$SET_DISPLAY_SCROLL_REGION display-id [,start-row] [,end-row]


RETURNS


OpenVMS usage cond_value
type longword (unsigned)
access write only
mechanism by value


Arguments

display-id


OpenVMS usage identifier
type longword (unsigned)
access read only
mechanism by reference

Specifies the virtual display in which scrolling takes place. The display-id argument is the address of an unsigned longword that contains the display identifier.

Display-id is returned by SMG$CREATE_VIRTUAL_DISPLAY.

start-row


OpenVMS usage longword_signed
type longword (signed)
access read only
mechanism by reference

Specifies the first line of the virtual scrolling region. The start-row argument is the address of a signed longword that contains the starting line number. If omitted, the first line of the display is used.

end-row


OpenVMS usage longword_signed
type longword (signed)
access read only
mechanism by reference

Specifies the last line of the virtual scrolling region. The end-row argument is the address of a signed longword that contains the ending line number. If omitted, the last line of the virtual display is used.

Description

SMG$SET_DISPLAY_SCROLL_REGION creates a virtual scrolling region in a specified virtual display, using the specified starting and ending lines. If the start-row and end-row arguments are omitted, the entire display becomes a scrolling region. This routine does not change the appearance of the pasteboard or the virtual cursor position.

You can define part of all of a virtual display as scrolling using SMG$SET_DISPLAY_SCROLL_REGION. Note the behavior of scrolling in the Screen Management Facility, as follows: when you call SMG$PUT_LINE to write to the bottom line of the scroll region, the display does not scroll up immmediately. If the display scrolled up immmediately, it never would be possible to use the bottom line of the scroll region. Instead, the need for a scroll is "stored" until you issue the next SMG$PUT_LINE call. (Note that the need for a scroll is only stored until your next call to a whole-line write routine, such as SMG$PUT_LINE, SMG$PUT_LINE_WIDE, and so on.)

If you call another routine after SMG$PUT_LINE, such as SMG$SET_CURSOR_ABS or SMG$PUT_CHARS, the stored need for a scroll will be discarded and text written to the bottom line of the scrolling region will overwrite the existing line.


Condition Values Returned

SS$_NORMAL Normal successful completion.
SMG$_INVDIS_ID Invalid display-id.
SMG$_INVARG End-row is less than or equal to start-row.
SMG$_INVROW Invalid row.
SMG$_WRONUMARG Wrong number of arguments.
