NSpProtocolList_Create

You can use the NSpProtocolList_Create function to create a new list for storing multiple protocol references.

OSStatus NSpProtocolList_Create (
	NSpProtocolReference inProtocolRef,
	NSpProtocolListReference *outList);

inProtocolRef

An opaque reference to the protocol reference to be added to the list when it is created. Pass NULL if you don't want to add any protocol references at this time.

outList

An opaque reference to the protocol list that was created. This is only valid if the function returns noErr.

function result

A result code of noErr, or a NetSprocket or Open Transport result code.

DESCRIPTION

The NSpGame_Host function requires a list of protocol references, so that the game can be hosted on multiple protocols. Also, the NSpDoModalHostDialog function requires you to pass a protocol list that it fills in. Once a protocol reference has been added to a list, its memory belongs to the list.
