datatype class %Library.ListOfBinary extends %Library.List

ODBC Type: VARCHAR

The %ListOfBinary data type class is used to represent data that is in $List format. The logical value for %List is a list of elements in $List format. %ListOfBinary adds to its superclass, %List, a comma separated base64 encoded XML export format.

When a %ListOfBinary data type value is projected to a client application, it exposes it as a syslist object. This allows the client application to efficiently manipulate the contents of the list.

Note that $List format is a compressed binary format; for this reason, a property of type of %List cannot be set through SQL nor can its value be queried through SQL (such as with a WHERE clause).

Refer to the documentation on $List in the ObjectScript Reference for more information.
