Hi, I'm trying to get some ATP based transactions running here and have run across somewhat of a puzzlement. First off, I'm using Think C and the 'preferred' Appletalk interface. Where I run into difficulties is when I try to use PSendRequest with the numOfBuffs field of the parameter block set to 0, and using PSendResponse with both numOfBuffs and bdsSize set to 0. In the later case the response message just never gets sent, I can't remember what happens in the first case, but I think it was the same thing: the request didn't get sent. Now it may seem odd to be sending requests and responses with no content but I had hoped in some cases to just be able to use the userbytes... Can someone here clarify for me just what is going on here, what do the ATP routines expect to get, and is there any way for me to pass zero length messages using ATP? Thanks, Dan -- dan@lclark tektronix!reed!lclark!dan Dylsexics untie! (-|
