thread.evaluateTo
| Syntax |
thread.evaluateTo (s, adr)
|
| Params |
s is a string value containing a valid UserTalk expression. adr is the address of a database cell in which to store the result.
|
| Action |
Compiles the string s as a Frontier script and interprets it in a newly-created thread, storing the result of the expression in the cell at adr.
|
| Returns |
The numeric id of the new thread.
|
| Examples |
id = thread.evaluateTo ("calculatePiTo1000Places ()", @scratchpad.pi) » 127

| Notes |
The address passed in adr cannot be the address of a local variable, because that variable may have gone out of scope when the script being evaluated finishes. This verb is implemented as a script.
