NAME
- PrintDTObjectA
-
Call the DTM_PRINT method on a separate process. (V39)
SYNOPSIS
retval = PrintDTObjectA (object, window, requester, msg);
d0 a0 a1 a2 a3
ULONG PrintDTObjectA (Object *, struct Window *, struct Requester *,
retval = PrintDTObject (object, window, requester, data, ...);
ULONG PrintDTObject (Object *, struct Window *, struct Requester *,
d0 a0 a1 a2 a3
ULONG PrintDTObjectA (Object *, struct Window *, struct Requester *,
struct dtPrint *);
ULONG PrintDTObject (Object *, struct Window *, struct Requester *,
ULONG, ...);
FUNCTION
This function is triggers the DTM_PRINT method of the object asyncronously.
Once the application has performed the PrintDTObjectA() function, it must not manipulate the printerIO union until it receives a IDCMP_IDCMPUPDATE message that contains the DTA_PrinterStatus tag.
To abort a print, the application sends the DTM_ABORTPRINT method to the object. This in turn signals the print process with a SIGBREAKF_CTRL_C.
