Get_Text_Table_Pointer; Get_Time - Scanlab RTC6 PCIe Board Installation And Operation Manual

Ctrl Command get_text_table_pointer
Function Returns the absolute start address of an indexed text string.
TextTablePointer = get_text_table_pointer( Index )
Call
Index
Parameters
Result Absolute start address.
As an unsigned 32-bit value.
• The get_text_table_pointer command reads from the internal management table the

start address of the indexed text string with the specified index. Whether the read
address resides in a protected or the protected
on whether the text string has been loaded into the protected
"List 3" or an unprotected subroutine has been only subsequently referenced.
• If Index > 41 or if no text string has been referenced with the specified index, then
get_text_table_pointer returns the value "–1" (for example, 2
• This command is useful for checking if a text string has already been defined or for
calling an indexed text string by an absolute memory address as if it were a non-
indexed subroutine, for example, for conditional execution with list_call_cond. Be
aware, though, that a subsequent
memory address. And you should ensure that get_text_table_pointer does not return
"–1"; otherwise
