Resets the timeout value for an Apple event to its starting value.
OSErr AEResetTimer ( const AppleEvent *reply );
A pointer to the default reply for an Apple event, provided by the Apple Event Manager.
A result code.
The AEResetTimer function resets the timeout value for an Apple event to its starting value. A server application can call this function when it knows it cannot fulfill a client applications request (either by returning a result or by sending back a reply Apple event) before the client application is due to time out.
When your application calls AEResetTimer, the Apple Event Manager for the server application uses the default reply to send a Reset Timer event to the client application; the Apple Event Manager for the client applications computer intercepts this Apple event and resets the client applications timer for the Apple event. (The Reset Timer event is never dispatched to a handler, so the client application does not need a handler for it.)
Supported in Carbon. Available in Carbon 1.0.2 and later when running Mac OS 8.1 or later.
