Subject: Metapost variable problem
Date: Tue, 03 Aug 2004 12:37:18 +0000 [thread overview]

Good afternoon.
I am sorry that I bother you with this offtopic but I don't know where
else I can ask.
I want to prepare a better interface for my metapost macros. I want to
use the record-like variables to store "object" information. But I don't
know how to copy such records. More precisely, let's suppose I have
string a.type; a.type:="ecicsqrt";
string a.name; a.name:="indifference curve number 1";
string a.A; a.A:="1";
string a.B; a.B:="1";
...
And I want to copy it to a record b. But
b:=a;
doesn't work (now b is equal to some unknown token a).
Is there some simple way to do it, or have I to copy it manually like this:
string b.type; b.type:=a.type;
...
Many thanks for your help. With wishes of nice summer
Michal Kvasnicka
