Re: [Gretl-devel] new defbundle() function

Since we already have defarray() and deflist() -- the latter in fairly recent git; see http://lists.wfu.edu/pipermail/gretl-devel/2017-April/007580.html it seemed like time to have a defbundle() function. It's now in git, and documented in the online Function Reference. Saves you having to declare a bundle as "null" then add one member at a time. Example: bundle b = defbundle("x", 5, "mat", I(3), "str", "Some string") The (zero or more) arguments have to come in pairs of (string) key followed by an expression that evaluates to an object of a type that can be included in a bundle. Type coercion is not supported; if you want to do that you have to use the traditional method of adding an object to a (pre-declared) bundle, as in series b.s5 = 5
