LP:()(), LPasCall() Function

Purpose

Executes a subroutine at a specified address and returns a Large value.

Syntax

x = LP:(addr)([parameters])

x = LPasCall(addr)([parameters])

x:Large
addr:iexp
parameters:aexp

Description

The parameters are placed in reverse order on the stack.

LP:()() and LPasCall()() expects the subroutine to clear the stack.

The parameters can be coerced to a specific format using by preceding the value with one of the following designators:

Dbl: double

Sng: float, single

Large: Large integer

Cur: Currency value

L: Long

Int: Integer

Var: Variant

Example

Dim a% = ProcAddr(test)

~LP:(a%)( Large:2, 3 )

' or

~LPasCall(a%)( Large:2, 3)

Procedure test(i%, la As Large)

Print la, i%

EndProc

Remarks

A Procedure takes it parameters by value using the StdCall convention.
