TS/MP Pathsend and Server Programming Manual (H06.05+, J06.03+)

No more than maximum-reply-len bytes of the actual reply are placed into message-buffer
upon successful completion of a send.
It is not an error if the server replies with a byte count not equal to the maximum-reply-len value
specified by the requester in the call to this procedure. If the server replies with a byte count greater
than the maximum-reply-len value, the actual bytes transferred are truncated to
maximum-reply-len.
This is a mandatory parameter.
outputactual-reply-len
INT:ref:EXT64:*
returns a count of the number of bytes returned in the server process reply. This parameter is for
waited I/O only and can be excluded for nowait I/O. The return value of this parameter is 0 if
nowait I/O is used. For nowait I/O, the actual reply length is returned by FILE_AWAITIO64_.
inputtimeout
INT(32):value
specifies the maximum amount of time, in hundredths of a second, that the LINKMON process waits
for the completion of this send. This value must be either -1D or a value greater than 0D. The default
is -1D (wait indefinitely).
If there is an outstanding I/O operation to a server process when the
SERVERCLASS_DIALOG_SEND64_ operation times out, the I/O operation is canceled.
For information about timeout for waited and nowait operations, see “Timeout Considerations for
Pathsend Programming” (page 106).
For more information on Pathsend error 904 and file-system error 40, see “Server Timeout” (page 106).
inputflags
INT:value
flags.<15>
indicates that this operation is to be performed nowait with a value of 1. A value of 0 indicates
that this operation is to be performed waited. The default value is 0.
flags.<0:14>
The value must be 0.
outputscsend-op-num
INT:ref:EXT64:*
returns the server class send operation number. Use the server class send operation number in place
of the file number parameter in calls to CANCEL, CANCELREQ, FILEINFO, and FILE_AWAITIO64_
for nowait sends, and in calls to FILEINFO for waited sends, to indicate that the calls refer to server
class send operations. The value of scsend-op-num is determined on the first successfully initiated
nowait send. This value is returned on every subsequent nowait send that is initiated successfully. A
value of -1 is returned for nowait sends that are not initiated successfully. A value of -1 is always
returned for waited sends.
For more information about the server class send operation number, see “Server-Class Send Operation
Number” (page 105).
inputtag
INT(64):value
is used for nowait I/O only. The tag is stored by the system and then passed back to the application
by the FILE_AWAITIO64_ procedure when the nowait operation is completed. You can use the tag
parameter to identify multiple nowait I/O operations. For waited I/O, this parameter is not used
and can be excluded. The default is 0D.
