function [mflag,msg] = ismapped(hndl)

%ISMAPPED  Test if object is projected on a map axes
%
%  ISMAPPED returns a 1 if the current object (gco) is projected on
%  a map axes.  Otherwise it returns a 0.
%
%  ISMAPPED(hndl) tests the object specified by hndl.
%
%  [m,msg] = ISMAPPED(...) returns an optional second argument
%  which is a string indicating any error state.
