I'm having a problem with my little CDEV that I've written.. The
particular problem I'm having is with Hilit ing an Icon button.. Here is my
Orca/C code.. (Note, since I am doing a CDEV from C, the only thing that
doesn't get set right is the databank register, so I can't use globals..)
voiddo_hit(ctlHndl,ctrlID)
CtlRecHndl ctlHndl;
long ctrlID;
{
static int temp=0;
temp = 1-temp;
if (ctrlID == 2)
HiliteControl(temp,ctlHndl);
}
ctrlID is an Icon button, and it is a resource drawn with NewControl2(), The
problem I'm having is that once I hit the button, it stays on for good...
Should I assume this is yet another bug of Orca/C producing bad code, or is
there something weird with the toolbox, that it can't flash a hilited button?
I've tested the static binary switch, out of this context and it seems to be
working ok there.. but not in this particular code..

Technically, you should be using 14 ($E) as the part code for hiliting an Icon button (since that's what FindControl returns), but that's not your immediate problem (any nonzero value seems to hilite it for me). You might check whether ORCA/C is accidentally initializing temp to 0 every time your procedure gets called...it's a tempting explanation. -- --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems AppleLink--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
