]]> ]]> Get_Status special file Get_Status retrieve a tool's current status Get_Status(out string status, out string vendor, out string toolName, out string toolVersion [in messageID operation2Query]); DESCRIPTION The Get_Status request retrieves the current status of a tool (or, optionally, of a specific operation being performed by a tool). The status argument is the status retrieved. The vendor argument is the name of the vendor of the handling tool. The toolName argument is the name of the handling tool. The toolVersion argument is the version of the handling tool. OPTIONAL The operation2Query argument is the ID of the request that initiated the operation the status of which is being requested. APPLICATION USAGE The &cdeman.ttdt.session.join;, and &cdeman.ttdt.message.accept;, functions can be used to register for, and help process, the Get_Status request. EXAMPLES After sending a TT_REQUEST and storing its handle in Tt_message request_I_sent, if the handler identifies itself with a Status notice saved in Tt_message status_msg_from_handler, then the status of request_I_sent can be queried as in the following example: Tt_message msg = tttk_message_create(0, TT_REQUEST, TT_SESSION, tt_message_sender(status_msg_from_handler), TTDT_GET_STATUS, my_callback); tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_OUT, Tttk_string, 0); tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_OUT, Tttk_string, 0); tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_OUT, Tttk_string, 0); tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_OUT, Tttk_string, 0); tt_message_arg_add(msg, TT_IN, Tttk_string, tt_message_id(request_I_sent)); tt_message_send(msg); SEE ALSO &cdeman.tt.message.arg.add;, &cdeman.tt.message.id;, &cdeman.tt.message.send;, &cdeman.ttdt.message.accept;, &cdeman.tt.message.sender;, &cdeman.ttdt.session.join;.
