    COM Callback

    I have opened a USB interface with COM and the send works fine.
    I need a CallBack for the input.

    Here is a short script, the first part works, just need callback.

    ' AH COM GUI script created on 09-10-2011 07:30:05 by: JDS  (ThinAIR)
       
        Uses "Console"
        Uses "UI"
        Uses "COM"  ' -- Create object   
        
        Dim Chndl As Long  
        Dim i As Single 
        Dim Params(7) As Variant   
        Dim RetVal As Variant  
      Chndl = Console_Alloc
         Function TBMain()
         
      DWord AHO = COM_CREATEOBJECT ("X10.ActiveHome", Params(7))
         ' -- Call method (parameters should be supplied in form of Variant array)
        
          Params(1) = "sendplc"
          Params(2) = "O09 on"
          COM_CALLMETHOD(AHO, "SendAction", 2, Params(),RetVal)  
                
             
          Params(2) = "o09 off"
          COM_CALLMETHOD(AHO, "SendAction", 2,  Params(), RetVal)

      End Function

    steinie,

    I'm sorry but thinBasic has no possibility to create function callbacks other than the one used for Windows handling in UI module.
    The problem is that script functions do not exists as compiled code at runtime but they are only source code to which I cannot derive a code pointer to be passed to a calling function.

    In the past I had an idea on how to solve this puzzle but still had no time to try to implement it.
    The idea was to have some many dummy functions in compiled code (Core module) to be linked to script functions at runtime. So each script function can have its counterpart in compiled code. In this way thinBasic, when asked, can pass the function pointer of the compiled function to which a script function was connected. Done that, the problem was how to parse and pass into the calling stack the needed function parameters.

    Sorry but this is the current situation.
