QAEngineGestalt

You can use the QAEngineGestalt function to get information about a drawing engine.

TQAError QAEngineGestalt (
                          const TQAEngine *engine, 
                          TQAGestaltSelector selector, 
                          void *response);

engine

selector

A selector that determines what kind of information is to be returned about the specified drawing engine. See "Gestalt Selectors" (page 1-57) for complete information about the available selectors and the information they return.

response

A pointer to a buffer into which the returned information is copied. Your application is responsible for allocating this buffer. The size and meaning of the data copied to the buffer depend on the selector you pass in the selector parameter.

DESCRIPTION

The QAEngineGestalt function returns, in the response parameter, a buffer of information about features of the type specified by the selector parameter associated with the drawing engine specified by the engine parameter.
