LFUN

void create_inh ()

DESCRIPTION

Initialise the object, whatever that means.

This function is only called when the object is first loaded by being inherited. However, /std/base::create_inh() calls create() then (for compatibility reasons).

Reason is that inherited objects don't need to initialise anything - they just have to provide the code. Unfortunately this feature might break code in the existing mudlib, so it's effectively not activated at the moment.

EXAMPLE

  inherit "/some/object";
  void create_inh () {
    return; // No need to initialise anything.
  }

IMPLEMENTED

/std/base, and any object needing it.
