$ListImg

<section begin="desc" />Associate an image with a $list<section end="desc" />

Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $ListImg function is to be entered.

This function returns a 0 indicating that the image has been associated with the $list or a negative number indicating that an error has occured.

The $ListImg function accepts two arguments and returns a numeric result. It is a callable $function (:hdref refid=callfun.).

The first argument is a $list identifier. This is a required argument.

The second argument can be a string containing the name of an image, or it can be any image item from the required image. This is a required argument.

Syntax

<section begin="syntax" /> [%RESULT =] $ListImg(list_identifier, image_id) <section end="syntax" />

$ListImg Function

%RESULT is a string that contains a 0, or it contains a negative number if an error has occurred.

-5 - Required argument not specified -6 - $List identifier invalid -8 - Image not found

$ListImg Error Codes

Suppose there is an image with the following description:

IMAGE SALES ITEM IS STRING LEN 16 ID IS STRING LEN 8 PRICE IS BINARY LEN 4 END IMAGE

One can associate this image with the $list %LIST with

%RC = $ListImg(%LIST, 'SALES')

or

%RC = $ListImg(%LIST, %SALES:ID)

While the latter is syntactically inefficient (:ID is superfluous), it is more efficient because the image name hashing and lookup is done at compile time rather than evaluation time.

th Functions that can use the association between an image and a $list are:

$ListAddI	:hdref refid=listadi.
$ListInf	:hdref refid=listinf.
$ListInfI	:hdref refid=listifi.
$ListInsI	:hdref refid=listisi.
$ListLoc	:hdref refid=listloc.
$ListLup	:hdref refid=listlup.
$ListOvl	:hdref refid=listovl.
$ListRepI	:hdref refid=listrpi.
$ListSrt	:hdref refid=listsrt.
$ListSub	:hdref refid=listsub.

The association between an image and a $list is an association between the image and the particular $list identifier value. A $ListMove does not change the image association of the target $list, and the image association of a $list is not saved or restored with $ListSav and $ListRst.
