Routines / Maintaining an ADSP Connection and Using It to Exchange Data

dspReset

The dspReset routine clears all the data associated with the connection that the remote connection client has not already read and resynchronizes the connection. You use the PBControl function to call the dspReset routine. See "Routines" on page 5-43 for a description of the PBControl function.

-->	ioCompletion	ProcPtr	A pointer to a completion routine.
<--	ioResult	OSErr	The function result.
-->	ioCRefNum	Integer	The driver reference number.
-->	csCode	Integer	Always dspReset for this routine.
-->	ccbRefNum	Integer	The CCB reference number.

Field Description

csCode

The routine selector, always dspReset for this routine.

ccbRefNum

The connection control block (CCB) reference number that the dspInit routine returned.

DESCRIPTION

The dspReset routine causes ADSP to discard all data in the send queue, all data in transit to the remote connection end, and all data in the remote connection end's receive queue that the client has not yet read. This process is known as a forward reset. ADSP then resynchronizes the connection. You can determine that your connection end has received a forward reset and has discarded all data in the receive queue by checking the eFwdReset flag in the userFlags field of the CCB. For information on the CCB, see "Connections, Connection Ends, and Connection States" beginning on page 5-6.

ASSEMBLY-LANGUAGE INFORMATION

To execute the dspReset routine from assembly language, call the _Control trap macro with a value of dspReset in the csCode field of the parameter block.

RESULT CODES

noErr	0	No error
errState	-1278	Connection is not open
errAborted	-1279	Request aborted by dspRemove or dspClose routine
errRefNum	-1280	Bad connection reference number
