Arguments: &key (process multiprocessing:*current-process*)
Returns the single dde-info
instance for the specified
process, which defaults to the current process (the value of *current-process*
). If no
dde-info object has been created yet for the specified process, then
one is created and returned; otherwise the existing dde-info object
for the process is returned (and therefore the returned value will
always be the same object for any given process).
This object must be passed to certain DDE functions that return information about this process' DDE state. These functions are
Compatibility note: dde-info objects are new in version 6.2. In prior releases, the functions to which a dde-info instance is now passed were global variables instead, but this did not allow DDE to work in multiple processes (except for Common Graphics processes, all of which had bound those variables when each CG process started up).
See dde.htm for information about DDE support.
