HELP! This is driving me mad! This is a pullright menu application
running on SunView 1.80 under SunOS 4.1.
What I want to do is call up a menu of filenames, using pullrights for
those entries which are directories. These pullrights are the contents of
the directories, which may also have pullrights, etc. Once a selection is
made, I need the tree path retrievable so I can place the path name in a
filename text panel item.
I cannot get the action procedure for the selection in the "leaf" (final)
menu to execute. I think I'm screwed up between the notify procedures of
the intermediate menus along the way and the action/notify procedure of
the final leaf menu.
This sound familiar? It's the way the SunView mailtool works at selecting
a folder from a hierarchy. BUT...mailtool is provided in the src
directory in object form...sooo...I can't see how they do it.
Any clues? Thanks. I'll summarize to the net.
