Routines for Creating and Sending Apple Events

Adding Data and Descriptor Records to AE Records

The Apple Event Manager provides two routines that allow you to add data and descriptor records to AE records. The AEPutKeyPtr function takes a pointer to data, a descriptor type, and a keyword and converts them into a keyword-specified descriptor record that it adds to an AE record. The AEPutKeyDesc function takes a descriptor record and a keyword and converts them into a keyword-specified descriptor record that it adds to an AE record.
