BuildEasyRequestArgs

Simple creation of system request. (V36)

BuildEasyRequest

Varargs stub for BuildEasyRequestArgs(). (V36)

This function is to EasyRequest() as BuildSysRequest() is to AutoRequest(): it returns a pointer to the system requester window. The input from that window can then be processed under application control.

It is recommended that this processing be done with SysReqHandler(), so that future enhancement to the processing will be enjoyed.

After you have determined that the requester is satisfied or cancelled, you must free this requester using FreeSysRequest().

Please see the autodoc for EasyRequest().

NOTE:

This function switches the processor stack to ensure

sufficient stack space for the function to complete.

Window

reference window for requester: determines the requester window title and screen.

easyStruct

pointer to EasyStruct structure, as described in the EasyRequest() autodocs.

IDCMP

(NOT A POINTER) provided application specific IDCMP flags for the system requester window.

Args

see EasyRequestArgs()

A pointer to the system request window opened. In the event of problems, you may also be returned the value '0' which is to be interpreted as the "FALSE, Cancel" choice, or (if you have a second gadget defined) the value '1', which is to be taken to mean the equivalent of your corresponding left-most gadget.

If there is a problem creating the window, a recoverable alert may be substituted for the requester, and the result, either 0 or 1, returned.

Does not put up alternative alert. See also BUGS listed for EasyRequestArgs().
