Create empty $list

Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. The OO equivalent for the $ListNew function is the New (Stringlist constructor).

This function creates an empty $list.

The $ListNew function accepts one argument and returns a numeric result.

The first argument, if set to the string NOREL, indicates that the contents of the $list are not to be emptied when a RELEASE ALL RECORDS statement is executed. This is an optional argument.

Syntax

<section begin="syntax" />%result = $ListNew(option) <section end="syntax" />

$ListNew Function

%RESULT is set to the identifier of the created empty $list.

There are no error codes associated with $ListNew.

All invocations of a particular call to $ListNew will always return the same value. Each time that call is executed, any previous $list created by that call is deleted, and a new list is created.
