Hoffman, II) Newsgroups: comp.os.os9 Subject: Doing SetStats in C - how? Message-ID: Date: 25 Sep 90 20:48:37 GMT Organization: Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburgh, PA Lines: 20 I am thinking about writing a little utility to send a break on a serial line, preferably using the SS_Break setstat. However, I find that the only C supported setstats are those of the form _ss_lock(), _ss_enrts(), and so forth. There is also a function call setstat(), but it apparently only supports two signal codes, 0 and 2. (according to the uWare manuals, anyway..) So my question is, how do you do a generic SetStat under C? The documentation for setstat() is very unclear as to whether or not you can do any other calls. Essentailly, I want to do something like: setstat(SS_Break,path); -or- _ss_break(path); Do these functions exist, but are just not well documented? Any help is appreciated... Russ rh2y+@andrew.cmu.edu
