LJ,
Well I'll be... There looks like there is an ars_CreateContainer
function in ARSPerl 1.91. ( If I poke around in the ARS.xs, and PM,
file it looks like the function is there.) However, there appears to
be no manual page for the function. Hum... I wonder if that means it
is not fully implemented?
Anyway...
The signature of the ars_CreateContainer looks like this...
ars_CreateContainer( ctrl, containerDefRef, removeFlag=TRUE )
ARControlStruct * ctrl
SV * containerDefRef
ARBoolean removeFlag;
FWIW the C API guide describes the removeFlag as this:
"
removeFlag
A flag specifying how invalid object references are removed when the
container is created. If FALSE, references to nonexistent AR System
objects will be removed with no error generated. If TRUE, an error
will be generated.
"
As far as how to create the "containerDefRef"... I am not sure, but
you could take a stab with the results form the ars_GetContainer.
Good luck.
