PARAMETERS
Input
dialogId Contains the identifier returned from a call to the
SPT_SERVERCLASS_DIALOG_BEGIN_() function that specifies the dialog
for this send operation.
message_buffer
Contains the message to send to the server class.
request_len Contains the byte length of the data contained in message_buffer.
maximum_reply_len
Contains the maximum number of bytes that are expected in the reply message
from the server class.
timeout (Optional) Contains the maximum amount of time, in hundredths of a second,
that LINKMON waits for the completion of this send. This value must be either
-1 or greater than 0 (zero). The default value is -1 (wait indefinitely).
If the send is still in progress when this timeout expires, then the send is can-
celed. An error value 233 (FEScError) is returned;
SPT_SERVERCLASS_SEND_INFO_() reports Pathsend error 918 (FEScSen-
dOperationAborted) and Guardian file-system error 40.
flags (Optional) If specified, must contain 0 (zero) to indicate a waited operation. This
parameter is provided for compatibility with the Guardian
SERVERCLASS_DIALOG_SEND_ procedure.
tag (Optional) If specified, this parameter is ignored. This parameter is provided for
compatibility with the Guardian SERVERCLASS_DIALOG_SEND_ procedure.
