// DESCRIPTION
//
// This file contains all the C translation layer routines for the
// pure virtual member functions in ALStorage, as well as some
// member access routines.
//
// Functions that simply provide a translation layer for an existing C++
// function are always located in the same file as the C++ function. The
// function sign this file don't have any existing C functions to attach
// to, since they implement either pure virtual functions or member access
// routines.

// Assign a monitor to a storage object.
//
// C++ SYNOPSIS
//

// don't need an access routine.
//
// C SYNOPSIS

//
// DELPHI SYNOPSIS
//
// procedure ALStorageSetMonitor( this_object : hALStorage;
// monitor : hALMonitor );
//
// ARGUMENTS
//
// this_object : A handle for (pointer to) the storage object that
// is have a new monitor assigned to it.
//
// monitor : A handle for (pointer to) an ALMonitor object. This
// object is going to be assigned to the storage object.
//
//
// DESCRIPTION
//
// This is the C/VB translation routine that allows you to access the
// C++ data member ALStorage::mpMonitor. This function checks its
// two handle arguments for correct type (in debug mode), then casts
// and assigns.
//
// Normally, assignment of monitor objects to storage objects is done
// inside the member functions of ALArchive. However, if you want
// to use a monitor for some operation you are performing on your own,
// such as a batch file copy, you will have to use this function (along
// with a couple of others) to get things to work properly.
//
// Note that 0 is a valid value for a monitor pointer.
//
// To see how the monitor actually works, check out BARGRAPH.CPP or
// WINMON.CPP.
//
// RETURNS
//
// Nothing.

// DESCRIPTION
//
// Delete() is used to delete the underlying physical object associated

//
// DESCRIPTION
//
// Since VB and Delphi programmers don't have direct access to the struct
// tm that is normally used to get and receive time/date stamps, we have
// four access routines. This is the access routine that sets the
// date stamp for a storage object.
//
// The actual work done here is extremely simple. A call is made to
// the C++ function that fills in the struct tm object, and the appropriate
// values are modfied using the parameters found here. A second call
// is then made to update the time stamp of the object.
//
// RETURNS
//
// Nothing.

// DESCRIPTION
//
// This is the C/VB wrapper function for the C++ member function
