5DESCRIPTION
6 Similar to call_direct(). If ob->func() is defined and publicly
7 accessible, any of the optional extra arguments are passed to
8 ob->func(...). The result of that function call is stored in
9 result, which must be passed by reference.
10
11 This efun is a twin to call_resolved(), with the difference
12 being that call_direct_resolved() never calls a default method.
13
14 The efun returns 1 if the function could be called.
15 If ob::fun does not define a publicly accessible function, the
16 efun will return 0.
17
18 ob can also be an object_name. If a string is passed for ob, and
19 no object with that name does exist, an error occurs.
20
Zesstra715ec202025-07-09 22:18:31 +020021 Additionally the efun accepts an array of objects as <ob>: the
22 function is called with the same arguments in all the given objects.
23 The single results are collected in two arrays, one for the result
24 of the function calls that will be stored in the result parameter,
25 and one for the efun result codes that will finally be returned from
26 the efun. Array elements can be objects or the names of existing
27 objects; destructed objects and 0s will yield a '0' as result in
28 both arrays, but don't cause an error.

31 Introduced in LDMud 3.3.113 with the H_DEFAULT_METHOD hook.
