Format of startup-main and startup-warm

How does startup-main and startup-warm work?
What calls them how do the execute, etc?
It looks like they are a script type of language but what processes them?

I see the the following type of commands in it
TIMER,,3,0
(What does this do and what is the calling syntax?)
URL,NOWAIT,NOWAIT,[URL to Display]
(What is the calling syntax?)
APP,NOWAIT,NOWAIT,[App to execute]
(What is the calling syntax?)
WAITTIMER,,,0
(What does this do and what is the calling syntax?)
URL
(It looks like this just wipes out whatever URL is displayed via above URL command)
APP,2,2,VolumeControl
(What is the calling syntax?, What does the 2,2 do?)
WAITTIMER,,,0
(What does this do and what is the calling syntax?)
APP,NOWAIT,FOREVER,setitime
(What does the "FOREVER" do?)


If this is a NEWBEE question I'm sorry and if you would direct me where I can learn this please do......

I believe their execution is a kind of hardcoded in Audrey. You can disable them by changing their name or make them empty.
As long as you want to use them be cureful editing them. They "sunchronize" and when you comment out a feature in one you have to comment out the same feature in all where present or Audrey will not boot.

Hardcoded in Audrey...
Strange that may be why I can't find any reference to it in any of the qnx stuff I've looked at.

Looks like some sort of scripting language though... I wonder what application fires/runs it?

look for the article on the QNX developer's web site (QDN?) titled
QNX Buildfile Roadmap
by Akhilesh Mritunjai (apologies if my spelling is incorrect)

it's the tell-all that describes the startup scripting file to which you're referring.

ooops -- it was formerly available there as a series of two separate articles. fortunately , google comes to your rescue. search for "QNX Buildfile Roadmap", and find the link to Mritunjai's web page:

http://www.me.iitb.ernet.in/~mritun/qnx.php3

scroll to the bottom of the page, where you can download the PDF file.

On the QDN web site, click on the Featured Articles link beneath Developer News and you get a list of articles that includes these two:

http://qdn.qnx.com/articles/oct1901/Using_buildfiles.html
http://qdn.qnx.com/articles/oct1901/Using_buildfiles2.html

enjoy....
