AppendProcedureList (Stringlist function)
Add information about procedures to a Stringlist (Stringlist class)
This callable function returns information about procedures in a procedure file or group into a Stringlist.
The AppendProcedureList function accepts three arguments and returns a numeric result.
Syntax
[%rc =] sl:AppendProcedureList( file, [pname], [accnt], [date])
Syntax terms
| %rc | A numeric variable that is set to zero if the function is a success; otherwise, it is set to one of these negative error codes:.
All other errors result in request cancellation. | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| sl | A Stringlist object. | ||||
| file | The name of the file or group for which information is to be returned. This is an optional argument, and it defaults to the default file/group at compile time. | ||||
| pname | The procedure name that is to be selected. The procedure name may contain asterisk (*) characters to indicate wildcard matches. This is an optional parameter, and it defaults to all procedures. | ||||
| accnt | The account ID of the last modifying user for the procedures to be selected. The account ID may contain asterisk (*) characters to indicate wildcard matches. This is an optional parameter, and it defaults to all account IDs. | ||||
| date | A string indicating the last modification date for the procedures to be selected. If specified, this parameter must be six bytes long and begin with an equal sign (=), a less-than sign (<), or a greater-than sign (>) to indicate whether the date should be equal to, less than, or greater than, respectively, the Julian date that follows, which is the last five characters. For example, the value .>03200 selects procedures last modified after day 200 of 2003. This is an optional parameter, and it defaults to all modification dates.
This two-digit year date is interpreted with a CENTSPAN of 1975, so values between 00000 and 74365 are considered to be in the year range 2000-2074. |
