This function allows an applications to issue the NETBIOS interrupt 5CH. An application should call this function instead of directly issuing a NETBIOS 5CH interrupt to preserve compatibility with future Microsoft products.
An application can call this function only from an assembly-language routine. It is exported from KERNEL.EXE and is not defined in any Windows include files.
To use this function call, an application should declare it in an assembly-language program as shown:
extrn NETBIOSCALL :far
If the application includes CMACROS.INC, the application declares it as shown:
externFP NetBIOSCall
Before calling NetBIOSCall, all registers must be set as for an actual INT 5CH. All registers at the function's exit are the same as for the corresponding INT 5CH function.
This function has no parameters and no return value.
The following is an example of how to use the NetBIOSCall function:
extrn NETBIOSCALL : far

;set registers
cCall NetBIOSCall
