FILE /usr/common/sys/stringd.c NAME mixed_sprint - print LPC data to a string PROTOTYPE string mixed_sprint(mixed data) CALLED BY Anybody DESCRIPTION Returns the string encoding the given LPC data. This could be used for debugging, or potentially to serialize data to a file. The data should contain no self-references or mixed_sprint may get into an infinite loop, repeat parts of the data or otherwise behave unpredictably. Objects print only their names, not their contents. This limits the use of mixed_sprint for serialization. RETURN VALUE The new string. ERRORS Unrecognized DGD types may give an error.
