Counts the widgets contained by an application object

int sm_list_objects_count(int list_id);

list_id

An integer handle to the list of widgets in an application object, obtained from sm_list_objects_start.

• 0 The number of objects listed for the specified container.

• · PR_E_OBJID: Unable to find the specified list handle.

sm_list_objects_count returns the number of objects specified in an object contents list. This list, created by sm_list_objects_start, initially contains the object IDs of all widgets in the container object; thus, a call to sm_list_objects_count immediately after the list is created yields the total number of widgets in a container object. Each call to sm_list_objects_next reduces by one the number of objects in the list; so a call to sm_list_objects_count that is preceded by calls to sm_list_objects_next yields the number of objects that remain on the object contents list.

Note: sm_list_objects_count does not check whether the widgets in an object contents list are still in existence; it is therefore possible to return a count that includes invalid object IDs for widgets that were destroyed after the list's creation.
