7.5.1 create_list


   This operation, which creates a pseudo-object, is defined in the ORB interface and

excerpted below.

void create_list ( in long out NVList ); count, new_list // number of items to allo// newly created list //PIDL cate for list

   This operation allocates a list and clears it for initial use. The specified count is a “hint? to help with the storage allocation. List items may be added to the list using the add_item routine. Items are added starting with the “slot(),? in the next available slot.

   An NVList is a partially opaque structure. It may only be allocated via a call to create_list.
