-- Helper function that populates the argument list given that user
-- may need to use a mix of named and unnamed parameters. This is
-- relevant because named parameters are not identical to unnamed
-- parameters due to string trimming, and when dealing with strings,
-- there can be a need to either preserve or remove that whitespace
-- depending on the application.

function str._getParameters( frame_args, arg_list )
local new_args = {};
