Pause([in messageID operation]);
Desktop Services Message Sets Pause(4) NAME Pause - pause a tool, operation or data performance SYNOPSIS Pause([in messageID operation]); DESCRIPTION The Pause request pauses the specified tool, operation or data perfor- mance. If the optional operation argument is included, the handler should pause the operation that was invoked by the specified request. The operation argument is the request that should be paused. For a request to be eligible for pausing, the handler must have sent a Status notice back to the requester (thus identifying itself to the requester). ERRORS The ToolTalk service may return the following error in processing the Pause request: TT_DESKTOP_ENOMSG The operation argument does not refer to any message currently known by the handler. APPLICATION USAGE The ttdt_session_join(3), and ttdt_message_accept(3), functions can be used to register for, and help process, the Pause request. EXAMPLES The Pause message can be sent as in the following example: Tt_message msg = tttk_message_create(0, TT_REQUEST, TT_SESSION, the_recipient_procid, TTDT_PAUSE, my_callback); tt_message_send(msg); WARNINGS Pause can also be sent as a multicast notice, as an edict to all tools in the scope of the message. The consequences of doing so can be severe and unexpected.
