Creates an object data table.
int
ade_oddefinetab(
struct resbuf* tab_defn);
Returns RTNORM or an error code
| tab_defn | List of table elements: the table name, the table description, and a sequence field definitions. |
The following sample creates a resbuf containing table defenition parameters. ade_oddefinetab() uses this resbuf and returns a result code indicating the success of the operation. Then it releases the resbuf, as required.
