TYPES

	Pdyn_mod 	unpost;	/* unpost structure 	*/

PHIGS STATE

(PHOP, *, *, *).

EFFECT

Returns the capacity of a workstation of type ws_type to update the display after structure posting, unposting, contents modification, deletion and reference change. The data is read from the workstation description table.

These capacities can be of three types:

PDYN_IRG: (implicit regeneration) the operation occurs after complete redrawing of the posted structures.

PDYN_IMM: (immediate) the workstation can carry out the operation.

PDYN_CBS: (can be simulated) a simulation allows the requested action to be carried out.

ERRORS

2: Ignoring function, function requires state (PHOP, *,*,*)
52: Ignoring function, workstation type not recognized by the implementation
51: Ignoring function, this information is not yet available for this generic workstation type: open a workstation of this type and use the specific workstation type
59: Ignoring function, the specified workstation does not have output capability (i.e. the workstation category is neither OUTPUT, OUTIN, nor MO)
62: Ignoring function, this information is not available for this MO workstation type
