Message_DataLoad

(Code &3)

Use

This message is sent by the Filer to ask an application to load a file, or by a task in response to a Message_DataSaveAck message.

Notes

When replying to a Message_DataSaveAck message, the data-saving task should write its data to the temporary file specified, and reply by sending this message.

The reply to this message should be sent as a User_Message_Recorded so that if it returns unanswered, the sender can delete the temporary file and report an error.

Possible responses from data-loading task:

• Task sends Message_DataLoadAck message (file successfully loaded)
• Task does not reply (error loading data / not interested in filetype)
