NAME
- SetCurrentBinding
-
sets static board configuration area
SYNOPSIS
SetCurrentBinding( currentBinding, size )
A0 D0:16
FUNCTION
This function records the contents of the "currentBinding" structure in a private place. It may be read via GetCurrentBinding(). This is really a kludge, but it is the only way to pass extra arguments to a newly configured device.
A CurrentBinding structure has the name of the currently loaded file, the product string that was associated with this driver, and a pointer to the head of a singly linked list of ConfigDev structures (linked through the cd_NextCD field).
Many devices may not need this information; they have hard coded into themselves their manufacture number. It is recommended that you at least check that you can deal with the product code in the linked ConfigDev structures.

INPUTS
- currentBinding
-
a pointer to a CurrentBinding structure
- size
-
The size of the user's binddriver structure. No more than this much data will be copied. If size is less than the library's idea a CurrentBinding size, then the library's structure will be null padded.
