NAME¶

get-message - (messages)

PURPOSE¶

Get string produced by writing a message.

SYNTAX¶

get-message <message> to <string>

DESCRIPTION¶

get-message will create a <string> from <message> which must have been created with new-message. <string> can then be used elsewhere, for instance sent with a remote call (see run-remote), written to a file etc.

Once get-message is called, <message> is initialized as if it was just created with new-message without the "from" clause.

EXAMPLES¶

// Create a message
new-message msg
// Write data
write-message msg key "key1" value "value1"
// Get string from message
get-message msg to str
...
// Create a new message from string
new-message new from str
// Read data
read-message new key k value v
// Display  data
print-format "[%s] [%s]\n", k,v

The result is:

[key1] [value1]
