Synopsis
int OMparse_obj_val (
OMobj_id object,
const char *buffer);
int OMparse_obj_ref (
OMobj_id object,
const char *buffer);
Description
OMparse_obj_val reads and parses an input string consisting of a valid definition for the value of a V object. The buffer argument contains any characters that can be placed after the "=" operator in a V statement and before the ";" statement terminator. Calling this routine has the same effect as entering this string in the VCP.
OMparse_obj_ref is the same as OMparse_obj_val except that it uses the "=>" operator instead of "=".
Error messages are sent to stderr.
Arguments
object
The id of an object.
buffer
A pointer to a NULL-terminated string consisting of V commands.
Returned value
The status code (see Return Status ). A 0 return value indicates that syntax errors were encountered in the statement definition.
