editobj(3G) editobj(3G)
NAME
editobj - opens an object for editing
SPECIFICATION
C editobj(obj)
Object obj;
FORTRAN subroutine editob(obj)
integer*4 obj
DESCRIPTION
editobj opens an object for editing. A pointer acts as a
cursor that appends new routines. The pointer is initially
set to the end of the object. The system appends graphics
routines to the object until either a closeobj or a pointer
positioning routine (objdelete, objinsert, or objreplace)
executes. Usually, you need not be concerned about storage
allocation. Objects grow and shrink automatically as
routines are added and deleted.
If editobj specifies an undefined object, the system
displays an error message.
