 #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXModSet... #!EF routines are auxiliary to  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXCallModule #!EF , 
which makes the actual call to a specified module. #!N #!N 
#!I0 #!N Notes: #!N #!I30 #!N 1. If you use  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   
DXCallModule #!EF in a stand-alone program or outboard module, you must 
call  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXInitModule #!EF before making any calls to  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXCallModule 
#!EF #!N #!I30 #!N 2. The two  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXSetModule... #!EF routines 
are provided solely for backward compatibility. Their use is not recommended. 
#!N #!I30 #!N 3. The Get and Set modules cannot be 
called by DXCallModule. #!N #!I30 #!N 4. Objects passed as inputs 
to DXCallModule will be deleted when that module is finished. To 
use the Object after DXCallModule requires a call to DXReference first, 
and the responsibility for deleting the Object when you are finished 
with it is yours. #!I0 #!N #!N #!N #!I0 #!N #!N

#!N #!N #!N The four  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXModSet...Input #!EF routines set the 
contents of  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   ModuleInput #!EF structures.  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXModSetObjectOutput #!EF sets the

#!N o If  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   name #!EF is specified as  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   NULL 
#!EF , the inputs and outputs set by these routines are 
considered positional. For example, the first values passed using one of 
the  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   DXModSet...Input #!EF routines will be assigned to the first 
parameter of the module, the second value to the second parameter 
of that module, and so on. #!N #!I30 #!N o If 
 #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   name #!EF is a valid string, then it specifies a 
parameter of the module specified by  #!F-adobe-times-bold-r-normal--18*   modname #!EF , and 
the passed value is assigned to that parameter. #!N #!I30 #!N
