Programming considerations
- The type definitions (for example,
dft_fil,dft_ref, anddft_kyl) are defined in the c_cdfapi.h header file. - You can define any number of key list structures in your program. Each key list can have from 1–180 keys. See Specifying logical records (LRECs) using keys for more information about key lists.
Examples
See Setting up a key list with less than six keys and Setting up a key list in the range 1-180 for examples of how to set up a key list.
