Syntax:

pcb_get_parm_type(callData, paramName);

where

callData is the third argument of the PARM_MODIFIED_CB callback function.

paramName is the name of the parameter to get the type from.

Example:

defun a_modified_cb(cbP, clientData, callData)
{
      decl paramData=NULL;
      decl a_mks=pcb_get_mks(callData, "A");
      paramData=pcb_set_mks(paramData, "B", a_mks*2);
      return(pcb_set_mks(paramData, "C", a_mks*3));
}
