Requirements:
Software Watchdog These functions are used by applications (exes) to register themselves
for watchdog monitoring and to tag the software watchdog.
Watchdog_SW_TagEx
This function registers an application thread for monitoring by the
software watchdog. The function creates a new instance of the
software monitor for the caller thread, sets the timeout value and
defines what happens when a timeout occurs.
DWORD Watchdog_SW_TagEx (DWORD *pdwWDTagID,
DWORD dwTimeout, DWORD dwTimeoutAction)
Parameters:
pdwWDTagID
A pointer to the Watchdog Tag ID value. The watchdog service returns
the value to the caller. The caller should initially set the value to
USE_THREAD_ID when it wants to register a new thread into the
watchdog service. The caller should use the returned value for all
subsequent calls to the watchdog monitor that it was assigned.
