hw_mapid Maps global id on virtual local id &reftitle.description; inthw_mapid intconnection intserver_id intobject_id Maps a global object id on any hyperwave server, even those you did not connect to with hw_connect, onto a virtual object id. This virtual object id can then be used as any other object id, e.g. to obtain the object record with hw_getobject. Note: In order to use this function you will have to set the F_DISTRIBUTED flag, which can currently only be set at compile time in hg_comm.c. It is not set by default. Read the comment at the beginning of hg_comm.c &reftitle.parameters; connection The connection identifier. server_id The server id is the first part of the global object id (GOid) of the object which is actually the IP number as an integer. object_id The object identifier. &reftitle.returnvalues; Returns the virtual object id.
