18 Msg GetMsgFromStack (
20 /* SYNOPSIS */
21 IPTR MethodID,
22 va_list args)
24 /* FUNCTION
25 Builds a message structure with the parameters which are passed on
26 the stack. This function is used on machines which have compilers
27 which don't pass the arguments to a varargs function unlike the
28 Amiga ones.
30 INPUTS
31 MethodID - This is the ID of the message
32 args - This has to be initialized by va_start()
33 firstlocal - The address of the first local function of the
34 function which wants to call GetMsgFromStack()
36 RESULT
37 A message which can be passed to any function which expects the
38 structure which is defined for this MethodID or NULL if something
39 failed. This call may fail for different reasons on different
40 systems. On some systems, NULL indicates that there was not enough
41 memory, on others that the MethodID is unknown.
43 NOTES
44 This function fails for structures with more than 32 fields.

56 INTERNALS
57 HPPA: Allocate a structure which can contain all IPTRs between
58 the first argument of, for example, DoMethod() and its first local
59 variable. This will copy a bit too much memory but in the end, it
60 saves a lot of work, since it's not neccessary to register every

165 are built in memory, ie. if he looks for the next TAG_MORE and
