CBL_READ_MOUSE_EVENT

Reads the mouse event queue and returns information about an event.

Syntax:
call "CBL_READ_MOUSE_EVENT" using     mouse-handle
                                      event-data
                                      read-type
                            returning status-code
Parameters:
Using call prototype (see Library Routines - Key) Picture (32-bit systems)
mouse-handle cblt-x4-compx pic x(4) comp-x.
event-data See Mouse Routines
read-type cblt-x1-compx pic x comp-x.
status-code See Library Routines - Key
On Entry:
mouse-handle Mouse identifier, obtained by earlier call to CBL_INIT_MOUSE.
read-type Indicates what to do if there are no events in the queue:
0 Return immediately
1 Wait for an event and then return
On Exit:
event-data See Mouse Routines
Comments:

If there are no events in the event queue, the return from this routine depends on the value of read-type. If read-type is zero, the routine returns immediately with all zero values in event-data. If read-type has a value of one, return is delayed until an event has been queued.

The CBL_ mouse routines do not work with the x"AF" mouse routines.
