$ListNewAI
Create array of empty $lists associated with image
Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. There is no direct OO equivalent for the $ListNewAI function, but the feature is implemented in a much more natural way with Collections.
This function creates an array of empty $lists.
The $ListNewAI function accepts nine arguments and returns a numeric result. It is a callable $function.
Syntax
<section begin="syntax" />[%RC =] $ListNewAI(%array, image_id, option, start_dim1, - size_dim1, start_dim2, size_dim2, - start_dim3, size_dim3 ) <section end="syntax" />
- The first argument is the array which will contain the identifiers of the $lists which are created. This is a required argument.
- The second argument can either be a string containing the name of an image or any image item from the required image. This is a required argument.
- The third argument, if set to the string NOREL, indicates that the contents of the $lists are not to be emptied when a RELEASE ALL RECORDS statement is executed. This is an optional argument.
- The fourth argument is the start index for the created $list identifiers in the first dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is 1. It must be between 1 and the size of the first dimension of the array.
- The fifth argument is the number of indices for the created $list identifiers in the first dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is the number of indices in the first dimension of the array minus the start index, minus 1 (that is, all of the indices starting with the start index). It must be between 1 and this default value.
- The sixth argument is the start index for the created $list identifiers in the second dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is 1. It must be between 1 and the size of the second dimension of the array.
- The seventh argument is the number of indices for the created $list identifiers in the second dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is the number of indices in the second dimension of the array minus the start index, minus 1 (that is, all of the indices starting with the start index). It must be between 1 and this default value.
- The eighth argument is the start index for the created $list identifiers in the third dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is 1. It must be between 1 and the size of the third dimension of the array.
- The ninth argument is the number of indices for the created $list identifiers in the third dimension of the array. This is an optional argument; its default is the number of indices in the third dimension of the array minus the start index, minus 1 (that is, all of the indices starting with the start index). It must be between 1 and this default value.
0 - No errors 1 - Invalid array bound
All invocations of a particular call to $ListNewAI will always set the same values to those elements of the array that are being set. Each time that call is executed, any previous $lists in those elements created by that call are deleted, and a new list is created.
$ListNewAI performs the same processing as $ListNewA and a $ListImg call for each $list mapped to the array but does so in a single call.
$ListNewAI is available in Version 6.2 and later of the Sirius Mods.
