- Hello,
-
- as the autodocs (v37+) say, AbortPkt() doesn't do anything. I can
- confirm this because at the address of AbortPkt() there is 1 instruction: RTS.
-
- Now, is there an alternative to abort (or remove, for that matter)
- packets submitted to a handler by SendPkt (or PutMsg)?
- Can I traverse the message list of the handler's MsgPort and Remove()
- my message? What if it has already been removed from the MsgPort?
-
- I need this because I don't want to wait till all packets have been replied
- to before quitting my program. I don't want the user to have to type
- something on the input stream before my program can quit...
-
- Thanks,
-
