Other Items:

package IC renames Interfaces.C;

type PID is new IC.unsigned_long;

type PPID is access all PID;
Process ID, and pointer to process ID

type TID is new IC.unsigned_long;

type PTID is access all TID;
Thread ID, and pointer to thread ID

type PFNTHREAD is access procedure (Informations : System.Address);
Note: <bsedos.h> defines the "Informations" and "param" parameter below as a ULONG, but everyone knows that in general an address will be passed to it. We declared it here with type PVOID (which it should have had) because Ada is a bit more sensitive to mixing integers and addresses. TBSL should use PVOID instead of Address as per above node ???

function DosCreateThread
  (F_ptid  : PTID;
   pfn     : PFNTHREAD;
   param   : PVOID;
   flag    : ULONG;
   cbStack : ULONG)
   return    APIRET;
pragma Import (C, DosCreateThread, "DosCreateThread");

procedure DosExit (Action : ULONG; Result : ULONG);
pragma Import (C, DosExit, "DosExit");

function DosResumeThread (Id : TID) return APIRET;
pragma Import (C, DosResumeThread, "DosResumeThread");

function DosSuspendThread (Id : TID) return APIRET;
pragma Import (C, DosSuspendThread, "DosSuspendThread");

procedure DosWaitThread (Thread_Ptr : PTID; Option : ULONG);
pragma Import (C, DosWaitThread, "DosWaitThread");

function DosKillThread (Id : TID) return APIRET;
pragma Import (C, DosKillThread, "DosKillThread");

type TIB2 is record
   Thread_ID           : TID;
   Prio_Rank           : UCHAR;
   Prio_Class          : UCHAR;
   Version             : ULONG;  -- Version number for this structure
   Must_Complete_Count : USHORT; -- Must Complete count
   Must_Complete_Force : USHORT; -- Must Complete force flag
end record;
GB970409: Changed TIB2 structure, because the tib2_ulprio field is not the actual priority but contains two byte fields that hold the priority class and rank respectively. A proper Ada style record with explicit representation avoids this kind of errors.

type PTIB2 is access all TIB2;
Thread Information Block (TIB)

type TIB is record
   tib_pexchain      : PVOID;  -- Head of exception handler chain
   tib_pstack        : PVOID;  -- Pointer to base of stack
   tib_pstacklimit   : PVOID;  -- Pointer to end of stack
   System            : PTIB2;  -- Pointer to system specific TIB
   tib_version       : ULONG;  -- Version number for this TIB structure
   tib_ordinal       : ULONG;  -- Thread ordinal number
end record;

type PTIB is access all TIB;
Process Information Block (PIB)

type PIB is record
   pib_ulpid         : ULONG;   -- Process I.D.
   pib_ulppid        : ULONG;   -- Parent process I.D.
   pib_hmte          : ULONG;   -- Program (.EXE) module handle
   pib_pchcmd        : PCHAR;   -- Command line pointer
   pib_pchenv        : PCHAR;   -- Environment pointer
   pib_flstatus      : ULONG;   -- Process' status bits
   pib_ultype        : ULONG;   -- Process' type code
end record;

type PPIB is access all PIB;

function DosGetInfoBlocks
  (Pptib : access PTIB;
   Pppib : access PPIB)
   return  APIRET;
pragma Import (C, DosGetInfoBlocks, "DosGetInfoBlocks");
Thread local memory

function DosAllocThreadLocalMemory
  (cb : ULONG;               -- Number of 4-byte DWORDs to allocate
   p  : access PVOID)        -- Address of the memory block
return
   APIRET;
pragma Import
  (Convention => C,
   Entity     => DosAllocThreadLocalMemory,
   Link_Name  => "_DosAllocThreadLocalMemory");
Return Code (rc) Priorities

function DosSetPriority

   Class   : ULONG;
   Delta_P : IC.long;
   PorTid  : TID)
