/*+*****************************************************************************  
  
Function:       ProcInt  
  
Purpose:        Integer handling utility. Copies an integer from/to a dynamic  
                data structure containing variable identifier and value as  
                structure elements.  
  
Arguments:      variable identifier;  
                pointer to its value;  
                type of action (PUT/GET/FREE)  
  
Return value:   SUCCESS if everything is ok;  
                VARNOTFOUND on attempt to operate on an undefined variable

Function:       ProcLong  
  
Purpose:        Long integer handling utility. Copies a long integer from/to  
                a dynamic data structure containing variable identifier and  
                value as structure elements.  
  
Arguments:      variable identifier;  
                pointer to its value;  
                type of action (PUT/GET/FREE)

/*+*****************************************************************************  
  
Function:       ProcMessage  
  
Purpose:        Message handling utility. Determine the message handling mode  
                and the debugging mode from the public variables "i_messagemode"  
   
                and "cp_debugmode" or default values. Print message to the  
                appropriate stream. If the message has to be printed to a  
                logfile, then determine whether the logfile already exists.  
                If it is the first time writing to the logfile, then assign a  
                unique filename using to the current time and check whether the  
                filename is already in use by another process. Then copy the  
                filename to public storage.  
  
Arguments:      pointer to the message;  
                message type (__DEFAULT/__VERBOSE/__DEBUG/__EDEBUG)  
  
Return value:   LOCKFILE_CREATE_ERR if creating lockfile failed;  
                LOGFILE_OPEN_ERR if opening logfile failed;  
                LOGFILE_WRITE_ERR if writing logfile failed;  
                SUCCESS if everything is ok
