editobj(3G)                                                        editobj(3G)



NAME
     editobj - opens an object definition for editing

C SPECIFICATION
     void editobj(obj)
     Object obj;

PARAMETERS
     obj   expects object identifier for object definition you want to edit.

DESCRIPTION
     editobj opens an object definition for editing.  The system maintains an
     editing pointer that initially points to the end of the definition.  The
     system appends all new routines at that pointer location until you call
     closeobj or until you call a routine that repositions the editing
     pointer, such as objdelete, objinsert, or objreplace.

     Usually, you need not be concerned about memory allocation.  Objects grow
     and shrink automatically as routines are added and deleted.  (See
     chunksize.)

     If you call editobj for an undefined object identifier, the system
     displays an error message.

SEE ALSO
     compactify, objdelete, objinsert, objreplace, chunksize

NOTE
     This routine is available only in immediate mode.
