I'm writing an IXP using IPAS4/3ds4. I have a problem with the "State" info. I run the IXP from video post and my debug traces show me that my IXP gets the EXP_PUT_CONFIG with bad data. Curiously, the EXP_GET_CONFIG was never called, as I never went into the IXP setup dialog. Why does the EXP_PUT_CONFIG get sent when 3DS never retrieved the state. Also, I note that the sample code for all of the EXP shells (PXP.C, IXP.C etc) have both EXP_PUT_CONFIG and EXP_GET_CONFIG doing essenntially the same thing, which is copying the state data from 3DS data buffer. Is this right? Then does 3DS only get the state data 1 var at a time using other functions but not EXP_GET_CONFIG or EXP_PUT_CONFIG?
