CHAPTER 19

Built-in Applications and System Data

19-34 Fax Soup Entries

Detailed information on the data structures that support these stationeries is provided

in “Notes Soup Format” (page 16-82) in Newton Programmer’s Reference. A list of

these frames is available in the Summary; see “Notes Soup” (page 19-53).

To avoid future compatibility problems with soup format changes, you should use

the global functions

GetSysEntryData and SetSysEntryData to make

change entries in any of the built-in soups. These allow you to get and set the

values of slots in a soup entry. If you don’t use these functions to get and set entry

slots in the built-in soups, your application may break under future versions of

system software.

About Fax Soup Entries 19

If you want to use a received fax in your application, you can ﬁnd it in the In/Out

Box soup or set up a process to route it to your application by means of the

PutAwayScript or the AutoPutAway messages, both described in Newton

Programmer’s Reference.

The PutAwayScript message results from a user action. An application can

RegAppClasses function,

see

RegAppClasses in Newton Programmer’s Reference.

The AutoPutAway message requires no user action. The In Box checks for an

AutoPutAway method in the base view of the application whose appSymbol slot

matches that in the item. If the

AutoPutAway method exists, the In Box sends the

AutoPutAway message to the application, passing the incoming item as a

parameter.

In either case, the

body slot from the In/Out Box entry is passed to the application.

All the fax data that an application needs is embedded within the

body slot; see

“Using Fax Soup Entries” (page 19-34).

You may also want to use the system prototypes that relate to viewing and

manipulating images with your fax data. They are

protoImageView,

protoThumbnail, and protoThumnailFloater.

Using Fax Soup Entries 19

When an entry is submitted to the In/Out Box from a transport such as fax receive,

or from an application, the fax is stored in the

body slot of the In/Out Box soup

entry. The In/Out Box stores the original application soup entry in a frame called
