L_INT EXT_FUNCTION L_InetSendGetMagGlassDataCmd(hComputer, uCommandID, uBitmapID, uMaskPlaneSize, pMaskPlane, nMaskPlaneStart, nMaskPlaneEnd)

L_COMP hComputer;

/* handle to a remote computer */

L_UINT uCommandID;

/* command id */

L_UINT uBitmapID;

/* bitmap id */

L_UINT32 uMaskPlaneSize;

/* size of the bit flags array */

L_UCHAR L_FAR *pMaskPlane;

L_INT nMaskPlaneEnd;

/* end index of the mask plane array */

Sends a get Magnifying Glass data command to a remote computer.

Parameter

Description

hComputer

Handle of the remote computer to which the command will be sent.

uCommandID

Command ID. Each command sent by a member of a connection should have a unique ID. Since a member of a connection may send several commands, this ID allows that member to identify when a specific command request has been completed.

uBitmapID

The id of the bitmap from which to get Magnifying Glass data.

uMaskPlaneSize

The size of the bit flags array in bytes.

pMaskPlane

An array of bit flags which represents a mask plane. This array works as a plane for the parts of the bitmap that are not yet updated.

nMaskPlaneStart

The start index of the mask plane array.

nMaskPlaneEnd

The end index of the mask plane array.

Returns

SUCCESS

This function was successful.

< 1

An error occurred. Refer to Return Codes.

Comments

The remote computer should respond by calling L_InetSendGetMagGlassDataRsp in its INETCOMMANDCALLBACK function. This callback function must be set using L_InetSetCommandCallback.

Once the remote computer receives this command it should call L_InetGetMagGlassData function to get the needed data from the bitmap. The bitmap that the data needed from should exist on the remote computer.

The INETCOMMANDCALLBACK function will receive the uBitmapID, uMaskPlaneSize, pMaskPlane, nMaskPlaneStart and nMaskPlaneEnd information in the pParams parameter. The uBitmapID information will be in pParams[0]. The uMaskPlaneSize information will be in pParams[1], and so forth.

To receive responses to commands, provide an INETRESPONSECALLBACK function. This function must be set using L_InetSetResponseCallback.
