Add a new type and data structure to LPC. Lightweight objects combine properties from structs (small memory footprint, automatic lifetime management) and objects (capsulation, functions). (Implements #688)

SYNOPSIS
|
|
void catch_msg(mixed *|struct|mapping|object msg,
|
|
object|lwobject obj)
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
When say(), tell_room() or tell_object() are used with a
|
|
non-string as message, the value will be passed to catch_msg()
|
|
in all living objects that can hear it, instead of writing to
|
|
the user resp. sending to catch_tell(). This can be used to
|
|
implement communication protocols between livings. The second
|
|
argument denotes the object that has sent the message.
|
|
|
|
HISTORY
|
|
LDMud 3.2.11 added tell_object() to the efuns calling this
|
|
lfun for symmetry reasons.
|
|
LDMud 3.3.686 added the use of a mapping/struct/object as message
|
|
value.
