Writes a cell (character-attribute pair) to the display a specified number of times.

Syntax

VioWrtNCell (Cell, Times, Row, Column, VioHandle)

Parameters

Cell (PBYTE) - input
Attribute to be written.
The address of the character-attribute cell (2 or 4 bytes) to be written.
Times (USHORT) - input
Repeat count.
The number of times to write the attribute.
Row (USHORT) - input
Starting row position.
Column (USHORT) - input
Starting column position.
VioHandle (HVIO) - input
VIO presentation-space handle.
This must be 0, unless the caller is a Presentation Manager application; in this case, it must be the value returned by VioCreatePS.

Return Code

rc (APIRET) - returns
VioWrtNCell returns one of the following values:
  • 0 NO_ERROR
  • 355 ERROR_VIO_MODE
  • 358 ERROR_VIO_ROW
  • 359 ERROR_VIO_COL
  • 421 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_PARMS
  • 436 ERROR_VIO_INVALID_HANDLE

Remarks

If a repeated write gets to the end of the line and is not complete, it continues at the beginning of the next line. If the write gets to the end of the screen, it terminates.
