Event Manager Routines

Sending Events

You can send events to other applications or processes using the PostHighLevelEvent function. To send Apple events to other applications, use the Apple Event Manager function AESend. The Operating System Event Manager also provides the PPostEvent and PostEvent functions for posting low-level events to the Operating System event queue. The PostEvent function is used by the Toolbox Event Manager. In most cases your application should not use the PostEvent function.
