present(3) LPC Library Functions present(3) NAME present() - find an object by id SYNOPSIS object present( mixed str, object ob ); DESCRIPTION If an object that identifies to the name `str' is present, then return it. `str' can also be an object, in which case the test is much faster and easier. If `ob' is given, then the search is done in the inventory of `ob', otherwise the object is searched for in the inven- tory of the current object, and in the inventory of the environment of the current object.
