Bind the Dynstruct to a Variable

Scroll Prev Top Next More

The binding operation associates a dynamic structure definition with a dynstruct variable, accomplished via one of the following methods:

Explicit binding via MX_DYNSTRUCT:

xcall MIAMEX, MX_DYNSTRUCT, DYNOP_BIND, status, dsname$, ds

Explicit binding via .BINDSTRUCT:

.BINDSTRUCT ds, stvar

Implicit binding by passing an instance of a defined structure to a function which receives it as a DYNSTRUCT:

call Fn'Dive(ds=bar)   ! ST_FOO will be embedded (because of how fn'foo receives it)

...

function Fn'Dive(ds as DYNSTRUCT)
