I have an application which builds several windows and listens for
function key events. Communications to this process can be through
function keys (i.e. to tell me to change windows) or through messages
sent from other processes (system V message queue facility). My question
is this: Is it possible to add the message queue as a source of input such
that I can receive an event when a message arrives on the queue?
I would rather not have to poll for events and messages....
The XtAddInput() seems to be only for fd's, is there a similar
function where I can specify my message queue id as a source?
The particular facts of my system:
R3 Intrinsics (actually, its been called R2.5 by those
who probably would know!)
R2 Hp widgets
AT&T 6386 running Interactive 2.0.2
Thanks in advance,
Betsy
