proplist
|
The proplist function returns the property list associated
with {sym}. If the argument {sym}, is not associated
with a property list, #void is returned.
When to use The proplist function is a function defined as part of the standard
Lisp language. There are five functions that deal with assigning,
acquiring and removing a property from a property list of a symbol:
putProp, getProp, proplist, proprecord, and remProp.
The notion of a property for a symbol consists one or more property
bindings: a property-descriptor followed by a property-name.
While Lisp supports the traditional Lisp functions for properties,
the Structure and Dictionary objects offer a more flexible way of
storing attribute bindings.
(proplist sym) Returns the property list as a List. If the Symbol has no property list,
then #void is returned.
Here are a number of links to Lambda coding examples which contain this instruction in various use cases.
Here are the links to the data types of the function arguments. Here are also a number of links to functions having arguments with any of these data types.
