| SYNOPSIS |
| mapping mkmapping(mixed *arr1, mixed *arr2,...) |
| mapping mkmapping(struct st) |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| The first form returns a mapping with indices from 'arr1' and |
| values from 'arr2'... . arr1[0] will index arr2...[0], arr1[1] |
| will index arr2...[1], etc. If the arrays are of unequal size, |
| the mapping will only contain as much elements as are in the |
| smallest array. |
| |
| The second form converts the given struct <st> into a mapping |
| using the struct member names as index values. |
| |
| EXAMPLES |
| mkmapping( ({ 1, 2 }), ({ 10, 11 }), ({ 20, 21, 22})) |
| returns ([ 1:10;20, 2:11;21 ]) |
| |
| struct s { int a; int *b; int c; }; |
| mkmapping( (<s> a: 1, b: ({ 2, 3 }), c: 3 ) |
| returns ([ "a":1, "b":({2,3}), "c":3 ]) |
| |
| HISTORY |
| LDMud 3.3.433 added the conversion from structs. |
