<list> (Visual C++)
The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.
The latest version of this topic can be found at <list> (Visual C++).
The <listheader> block is used to define the heading row of either a table or definition list. When defining a table, you only need to supply an entry for term in the heading.
Syntax
<list type="bullet" | "number" | "table">
<listheader>
<term>term</term>
<description>description</description>
</listheader>
<item>
<term>term</term>
<description>description</description>
</item>
</list>
Parameters
term
A term to define, which will be defined in description
.
description
Either an item in a bullet or numbered list or the definition of a term
.
Remarks
Each item in the list is specified with an <item> block. When creating a definition list, you will need to specify both term
and description
. However, for a table, bulleted list, or numbered list, you only need to supply an entry for description
.
A list or table can have as many <item> blocks as needed.
