Bundle list header row

GDDM V3R2 Base Application Programming Reference
SC33-0868-02



1 - List Status
The status of the bundle list.

Values that can be assigned to list status are the same as bundle status; in fact list status must always be equal to the value obtained by ORing together the values of all the bundle statuses in the bundle list. For example, whenever the application changes a bundle status indicator it must also change the list status.

2 - Used depth
The number of rows that GDDM uses in the bundle list.

Its value must be in the range 1 through list depth. It may be changed by the application to add new definitions or to remove unused definitions from the list. If this value is increased, the new bundle definitions must have the bundle changed indicator set in the bundle definition status element.

3 - Used width
The maximum number of elements in the header and each bundle definition used by GDDM.

This value must be less than or equal to the list width, and the minimum value is 4. If the value is less than the list width, then extra elements in the header and each bundle definition will be ignored by GDDM, and may be used by the application to record its own data. It may be changed by the application to extend or reduce the maximum number of type-and-value pairs in the bundle definitions.

Note: Although GDDM may not use as many elements in the header as in the bundle definitions, only those elements beyond the used width may be used for application data, the rest must be zero.
