The binding operation associates a dynamic structure definition with a DYNSTRUCT variable, accomplished via one of the following methods.
map1 ds, DYNSTRUCT ! sample dynamic struct (used below)
map1 stvar, ST_SOME_STRUCT ! sample defstruct " "
map1 bar, ST_ANOTHER_STRUCT ! another sample defstruct " "
| • | Explicit binding via MX_DYNSTRUCT: |
xcall MIAMEX, MX_DYNSTRUCT, DYNOP_BIND, status, dsname$, ds
| • | Explicit binding via .BINDSTRUCT: |
.BINDSTRUCT ds, stvar
| • | Implicit DYNSTRUCT by passing an instance of a defined structure to a function which receives it as a DYNSTRUCT: |
call Fn'Dive(ds=bar) ! ST_ANOTHER_STRUCT will be embedded (because of how Fn'Dive receives it))
...
function Fn'Dive(ds as DYNSTRUCT)
