Description

The entry data type is a chunk type of dictionary that represents an entry in the dictionary.

Note

Accessing a entry chunk that refers to an entry not in the dictionary returns empty. Modifying a entry chunk that refers to an entry not in the dictionary adds a new entry to the parent dictionary.

Compatibility

OpenXION 1.3 did not properly handle accessing entry chunks not in the dictionary, causing the interpreter to crash. This was fixed in OpenXION 1.4 and later.
