SDGetRelVersionList 

Retrieve all versions that contain the specified relationship.

Syntax 

     SDGetRelVersionList (Dcb,RelationshipType,RelationshipClass,EntityList, 
                         RetrievalID,Version,Status)

Parameters 

Dcb                       Required input; type = DcbType 
                          This parameter passes information about the
                          dictionary to this intrinsic.  It is
                          initialized by the SDOpen intrinsic.

RelationshipType          Required input; type = RelationshipTypeList 
                          This parameter specifies the relationship type
                          of the relationship whose versions are to be
                          retrieved.

RelationshipClass         Required input; type = NameOrNumberType 
                          This parameter specifies the class of the
                          relationship type.  Blanks or a 0 may be
                          specified for this parameter when the entity
                          types specified in the RelationshipType 
                          parameter uniquely identify a relationship
                          type.

EntityList                Required input; type = EntityListType 
                          This parameter specifies the relationship whose
                          versions will be retrieved.

RetrievalID               Required input; Output; type = RetrievalIDType 
                          This parameter is used internally to pass
                          information between multiple calls of this
                          intrinsic, to retrieve all of the versions that
                          contain the specified relationship.

                          To find the first version, initialize the first
                          four bytes of this parameter to a binary zero.
                          To find additional versions call this intrinsic
                          once for each version to be returned.

Version                   Output; type = NameType 
                          This parameter returns the name of a version of
                          the specified relationship for each successful
                          call of the intrinsic.

Status                    Output; type = StatusType 
                          This parameter contains information indicating
                          the success or failure of the intrinsic call.
                          This information is detailed in Table Table
                          3-1, located in Chapter 3 of this manual.

                          If this intrinsic is successful, the Status 
                          parameter contains the following information,
                          in addition to the description contained in
                          Table Table 3-1.
