Function OrdListRebuild() Foundation
Rebuilds open index files in a work area.
OrdListRebuild() --> NILThe return value of OrdListRebuild() is always NIL.
The index function OrdListRebuild() rebuilds the open index files in a work area. When the function is used without the alias operator, the function rebuilds the open index files in the current work area. When the rebuild is complete, the data record pointer is positioned on the first logical record of the controlling index.
OrdListRebuild() differs from OrdCreate() in that only the sorting is rebuilt and the index file is not completely recreated. If the file header of the index file is defective, it cannot be repaired using OrdListRebuild(). In this case, the index file must be recreated with OrdCreate().
// In the example, a database file with three index files is
// opened and the indexes are rebuilt using OrdListRebuild().
