Method Encoder()->nameof()

Method nameof

mixed nameof(object|function(:void)|program x)

Description

Called by encode_value() to encode objects, functions and programs.

Returns

Returns something encodable on success, typically a string. The returned value will be passed to the corresponding objectof(), functionof() or programof() by decode_value().

If it returns UNDEFINED then encode_value starts to encode the thing recursively, so that decode_value later will rebuild a copy.

Note

encode_value() has fallbacks for some classes of objects, functions and programs.
