Wimp_Poll Clarity...

Would the WIMP object to more than one entry to Wimp_Poll in a given program? I’m thinking to write a routine that has a call to Wimp_Poll with a mask that only returns on a NULL (0) reason code in order to effectively regain immediate control from within another routine… So we are able to get windows open or updates done without losing the context… I’m thinking WimpSVN progress window issues here… Amongst other things like getting Wimp_Messages sent etc… |

You can call wimp poll anywhere in your program but you still have to deal with the events. Sitting in a wimp poll loop just handling null events will stop your window moving or being redrawn if another window passes over it for example |
