facility_index OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned type: longword (signed) access: read only mechanism: by reference Represents an index of the asynchronous action. This index is used with the TPU$TRIGGER_ASYNC_ACTION routine to let DECTPU know what action to perform. It may also be used to delete an action routine (by omitting the tpu_statement). You may register several asynchronous actions depending on your application's needs. This facility index number may be any positive integer. tpu_statement OpenVMS usage:char_string type: character string access: read only mechanism: by descriptor The DECTPU statement you want executed when you call the TPU$TRIGGER_ASYNC_ACTION routine. The statement is compiled and then stored internally. If you omit the parameter, DECTPU removes the action from its list of asynchronous events.
