Description
The OBJECT() function is used to create an anonymous object. Properties are declared in a comma-separated list. Properties can be values only, <property value>, in which case they are given an automatically generated name: 00000001, 00000002 ... Property names can be specified using the <property name> => <property value> syntax. The OBJECT() function can also be included within the <property value> definition. The OBJECT() function returns an object.
