VMS terminal I/O
>From mknox@UTEXAS-11 Mon Apr 26 07:32:01 1982
I am attempting to post a VMS QIOW read to the terminal with a different
set of terminator characters than is standard (as per the I/O Users Guide).
The relavent code is:
.
.
trmchr: .quad 8
.
.
.
$qiow_s chan=chanl,-
func=#(io$_ttyreadall!io$m_noecho!io$m_timed),-
p1=buffer,p2=strlen,p3=#120.,p4=trmchr
.
.
.
The problem is the P4 parameter. It causes the routine to blow up with
an access violation, unless trmchr contains a 0. In any event, the termination
characters remain unchanged.
What am I doing wrong???
tnx
