GPQSPD - Inquire Source Physical Device

GPQSPD (wstype, class, ldevice, errind, category, pdevice)

Note:

This subroutine is a Workstation Description Table (WDT) inquiry. For an overview, see "WDT Inquiries"

Purpose

Use GPQSPD to inquire the category and number of the physical device that is connected to the specified logical input device.

If the information is available, then the graPHIGS API sets the error indicator to zero and returns the values in the output parameter. If the inquired information is unavailable, then the error indicator ( errind) contains the error number indicating the reason, and the values returned in the output parameter are unpredictable.

Parameters

wstype -- specified by user, 8-byte character string

Workstation type.

class - specified by user, fullword integer

Logical input device class ( 1=LOCATOR, 2=STROKE, 3=VALUATOR, 4=CHOICE, 5=PICK, 6=STRING )

ldevice - specified by user, fullword integer

Logical device number (>=1)

errind -- returned by the graPHIGS API, fullword integer

Error indicator. If the error indicator is zero, the request has been completed. Otherwise, one of the following errors exists:

23: SPECIFIED WORKSTATION TYPE DOES NOT EXIST
38: WORKSTATION HAS ONLY OUTPUT CAPABILITIES
140: DEVICE NUMBER < ONE OR DEVICE NOT AVAILABLE
328: INPUT CLASS VALUE IS INVALID
548: SPECIFIED WORKSTATION TYPE CANNOT BE LOADED

category -- returned by the graPHIGS API, fullword integer

Physical device category ( 1=BUTTON, 2=SCALAR, 3=2D_VECTOR )

pdevice -- returned by the graPHIGS API, fullword integer

Physical device number.

Error Codes

None
