RE: Array * and big array

Resent.  For some reasons the line break did not come up right. 

Yes, it is intentional.  list.item will be used as a dynamic array.

The basic idea is to allow caller to create multiple item lists.  This
will be a service program and caller will do something like below to use
it:

//Procedure below will lookup empty listmast slot and assign the slot to
poID.
//It will then do listMast(poID) =
//%alloc(%size(list.lastElem)+%size(list.item)*100)

createNewItemList(poID);     

//Procedure below allow caller to add item to the item list.
 
addItemToList(piID :piItem);


//Procedure below will deallocate a listmast slot.

destoryItemList(piID);

 listMast(1) = %alloc(%size(list.lastElem)+%size(list.item)*100);
 listMast(2) = %alloc(%size(list.lastElem)+%size(list.item)*100);

Here's you're only allocating memory for 100 items, despite that your
dim() lists 10000.  Is that intentional?

Can I ask what you're doing to accomplish?  You've used an array of
pointers for something that doesn't require pointer logic.  Yet, you've
used a big huge array for something else that probably does require
pointer logic.  What's your goal?
