INTCONT The INTCONT verb passes a message that was read through INTREAD to the
next-highest processing environment and, optionally, changes its message text. The
INTCONT verb can also change some attributes of the message. NCL passes the
message to the dependent response queue of the next-higher-level NCL process, if the
executing NCL process is running in a dependent processing environment. NCL
passes the message to the terminal if the executing NCL process is not running in a
dependent processing environment.
When an NCL process issues an INTCMD verb, the command associated with this
verb is executed in the issuing process's dependent processing environment. The
command is processed in the normal manner, but all responses resulting from the
command are returned to the originating process's dependent response queue, not to
the user's terminal. The issuing NCL process may then use the INTREAD verb to
retrieve the queued responses one by one.
INTCONT can only be used after a previous, successful INTREAD. Furthermore, if an
INTCONT is not used after an INTREAD, the message will be deleted in the next
INTREAD.
