SDGetStatusVersionList 

Returns all of the versions currently set to a specified status.

Syntax 

     SDGetStatusVersionList (Dcb,VersionStatus,RetrievalID,Version,
                              VersionDate,Status)

Parameters 

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

VersionStatus             Required input by value; type = 
                          VersionStatusType 
                          This parameter specifies the status of the
                          versions be returned.  numerical values for the
                          version statuses are:
                             1.  = Test status
                             2.  = Production status
                             3.  = Archival status

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

                          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 one version set to the
                          specified status for each successful call of
                          this intrinsic.

VersionDate               Output; type = DateType 
                          This parameter returns the date and time each
                          version was set to its status.

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.

Discussion 

All version names and associated data for each will be reported in
reverse chronological order.  The following restrictions apply when using
this intrinsic:

   1.  Open mode--The dictionary must be opened in Shared Read mode,
       Shared Read-Only mode, Shared Update mode, or Exclusive Update 
       mode.

   2.  Security--This intrinsic will succeed with any current scope.
