DESCRIPTION
The
ttdt_Get_Modified function
sends a
Get_Modified request in the scope
the_scope and waits for the reply.
A
Get_Modified request asks if any ToolTalk client has
changes pending on
pathname that it intends to make persistent.
The
context argument describes the environment to use.
If
context is not zero, messages created by
ttdt_Get_Modified inherit from
context all contexts whose slotname begins with the characters
ENV_. That is, the environment described in
context is propagated to messages created by
ttdt_Get_Modified.
The
pathname argument is a pointer to a pathname
on which the client is operating.
The
the_scope argument identifies the scope of the request.
If
the_scope is
TT_SCOPE_NONE, ttdt_Get_Modified tries
TT_BOTH, and falls back to
TT_FILE_IN_SESSION if, for example,
the ToolTalk database server
is not installed on the file server that owns
pathname.
The
ttdt_Get_Modified function
passes
app2run and
ms_timeout to
&cdeman.tttk.block.while;, blocking on the reply to the
Get_Modified request it sends.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, the
ttdt_Get_Modified function returns non-zero if the
Get_Modified request receives an affirmative reply within
ms_timeout milliseconds;
otherwise, it returns zero.
