Model Object Lists

A model object list is a logical grouping of model objects. The way in which you use model object lists is limited only by your imagination. For example, a model object list might consist of all

• Model objects changed since a specified date
• Model objects related to a particular development project
• Access paths and functions that need to be generated and compiled as a result of a change to the model
• Model objects needed to implement the accounts payable feature of your application
• Functions called by an external function in which an execution error occurred
• Model objects that use a specified model object

Since a model object list can be used in many ways, it can be referred to by other names based on the way in which it is used. For example, a specific model object list might be called a session list, copy list, change list, or model list, for short. In reality, these are all just variations on the same concept.
