NAME

       Builtins::unmarshal - Unmarshal a string

SYNOPSIS

       any unmarshal( String x, Int id )

ARGUMENTS

       x The String to unmarshal

       id The unmarshalling ID

DESCRIPTION

       Convert a String generated with Builtins.marshal (3kaya) into a variable of the appropriate type.

       This must be done with care, since the type you get depends on the String, so make sure you know what you
       are doing! The id given must match the id given when marshalling or an Exception is generated.

       An  Exception  will  also  be  generated  if the function table of the current program does not match the
       function table of the marshal()ing program.
