NAME
CreateExtIO -- create an IORequest structure
SYNOPSIS
ioReq = CreateExtIO(port,ioSize);
struct IORequest *CreateExtIO(struct MsgPort *, ULONG);
FUNCTION
Allocates memory for and initializes a new IO request block
of a user-specified number of bytes. The number of bytes
MUST be the size of a legal IORequest (or extended IORequest)
or very nasty things will happen.
INPUTS
port - an already initialized message port to be used for this IO
request's reply port. If this is NULL this function fails.
ioSize - the size of the IO request to be created.
RESULT
ioReq - a new IO Request block, or NULL if there was not enough memory
EXAMPLE
if (ioReq = CreateExtIO(CreatePort(NULL,0),sizeof(struct IOExtTD)))
