Does anyone know the equivalent function call to DoMethodA() for the following?

Code:
```
Object *App, *Win;

DoMethod(Win, MUIM_Notify, MUIA_Window_CloseRequest, TRUE, App, 2,
	MUIM_Application_ReturnID, MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit);
```
PPC assembly ain't so bad... ;)

Hope it helps. Here's the AmigaE style of MUI method call.
Code:
```
        doMethodA(window, [MUIM_Notify, MUIA_Window_CloseRequest, MUI_TRUE,
                  app, 2, MUIM_Application_ReturnID, MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit])
```

I miss draggable screens... and do you? I know I'm in a minority unfortunately.

Thank you, I can see some similarity to what I just found with objdump and a dummy program with an empty call to DoMethodA(). As it turned out, most of the problem I was having came from a messed up pointer to that not-quite-a-taglist given as the second parameter.

Meaningful documentation would also help. ;)

Try this:

tag *Tag: = { MUIM_Notify, MUIA_Window_CloseRequest, TRUE, App, 2,MUIM_Application_ReturnID, MUIV_Application_ReturnID_Quit,TAG_END};

DoMethodA(Win,Tag);
