<p>The Create Handle (QRZCRTH) API creates a handle that is used as a
|
|
placeholder when possible list items are involved. Use this API to create a
|
|
handle before calling a hardware resource API that has a handle parameter
|
|
defined.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><strong>Handle supplied to an API.</strong> The handle allows repeated
|
|
calls to obtain more than one list item. While retrieving possible list items,
|
|
a handle should be supplied when a first call attempt is used that is followed
|
|
by subsequent (next) call attempts.<br>
|
|
<br>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><strong>Handle not supplied to an API.</strong> While retrieving
|
|
information, if an attempt is made only for the first call, a handle may be set
|
|
to hexadecimal 0. If a subsequent (next) call is attempted by an API to
|
|
retrieve information, the API is unable to determine if more information meets
|
|
the supplied criteria unless the initial call is repeated through the use of a
|
|
handle.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>Note:</strong> The repeated API calls must have the same criteria
|
|
and must involve the same API. Handles cannot be shared across different APIs
|
|
or within the same API with different criteria.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You are required to delete any handles created by the Create Handle
|
|
(QRZCRTH) API. See <a href="qrzdlth.htm">Delete Handle (QRZDLTH) API</a> for
|
|
more information.</p>

<p> The receiver variable that receives the information requested. You can

specify the size of the area to be smaller than the format requested as long as

you specify the length parameter correctly. As a result, the API returns only

variable parameter may be specified up to the size of the receiver variable

specified in the user program. If the length of receiver variable parameter
|
|
specified is larger than the allocated size of the receiver variable specified

in the user program, the results are not predictable. The minimum length is 8

bytes.</p>
