ECS 3 Developer Tutorial - Annotation Values Example

Example Value Packing

The following code fragement packs a list of strings in ECDL format into an EV_AttrValue.

EV_AttValue *responseList;
char responseString[1000];
char text1[] = "string1";
char text1[] = "string2";

sprintf(responseString,"[\"%s\", \"%s\"]",text1,text2);
if (EVparseFormattedValue(responseString,
		          &responseList) == ECS_SUCCESS)
...

Note that EV_parseFormattedValue() allocates memory for an EV_AttrValue. When this storage is no longer needed, it should be released by calling EV_deleteValue().
