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.
The pasteboard identifier 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 Alpha 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.
