SYNOPSIS

any unmarshal( String x, Int id )

ARGUMENTS

x The String to unmarshal

id The unmarshalling ID

DESCRIPTION

Convert a String generated with Builtins.marshal(3kaya) into a variable of the appropriate type.

This must be done with care, since the type you get depends on the String, so make sure you know what you are doing! The id given must match the id given when marshalling or an Exception is generated.

An Exception will also be generated if the function table of the current program does not match the function table of the marshal()ing program.
