get-action [Function]

Purpose

The get-action function returns the action having a specified name.

Syntax

get-action action &key no-error-p

Arguments

The action argument is an action, or the name of an action.

If the no-error-p argument is t, then no error is generated if Loom cannot find an action having the specified name.

Value

The get-action function returns the specified action, or nil if it cannot be found.

Remarks

The get- functions are faster and do less error-checking than the find- functions. Applications should use the get- functions for best performance.

Examples

(get-action 'move) ==> |ACTION|MOVE 
(get-action 'open :no-error-p t) ==> |ACTION|OPEN
