  • Ticket #398 – Description

    v1 v2  
    33token is designed to be used in an exec_com script to select specific information from a data segment (using dump_segment's structure display interface to select the particular items), and save that data as an exec_com variable for eventual display to the user.  A given data item can be acquired and saved in a single exec_com &set statement.

    5 For example, the following &set statement dumps the first 1200_o words of the stack_header structure and selects the stack_header.ect_ptr pointer value as the return string from the token active function.  vptr uses that pointer to locate the Event Channel Table for the given ring (whose stack_header is being displayed), and assigns that location to the ectP exec_com variable.  The rules for selecting the return string are tailored to dump_segment structure output strings.  The -dump_segment_as_value (-dsav) control_arg selects those canned rules as -match values.
