#ExNext
5 messages in this thread
I uploaded an example of how to use ExNext to DL7 called exnext.arc. While
writing it I found that if I changed the contents of the FIB that ExNext
would faulter. I never crashed my system but did get infinite loops when
trying to examine floppy disk directories. Any directory on the RAM disk
worked fine. Also sometimes I would get proper termination but not all of
the files in the floppy directory would listed. I hope this helps. The code
should be very understandable (I hope). Darrel
Darrel, I got past ExNext by long-word aligning the fib as you recommended.
Thanx! I still don't have the file requester working properly. When do
you think you'll have yours done? (which I'll be gald to pay for). If soon
then perhaps I'll give up on mine. If you display files after each ExNext,
that means they won't be in alphabetical order? Can you make string
gadgets active? If I use ACTIVATE flag I indeed get a cursor inside the
string gadget, but I still have to click the gadget to type (which is
confusing). I am using a STRINGCENTER gadget, and it responds verrry
slowly to the keyboard. Have you had that problem? Thanx!!! —Mike
Mike; About making string gadgets active. Yes you can, take a look in DL9
at the most recent version of a file called (something like) REQN1.C It
includes code that does that. Ray
