AERecord structure
#include <AppleEvents.h>
typedef AEDescList AERecord; list of keyword-specified descriptor
records
The data type AERecord is closely related to a descriptor list. in fact, it is
defined by the data type AEDescList. While a descriptor list is a
descriptor record that contains a list of other descriptor records, an
AERecord contains a list of keyword-specified descriptor records describing
Apple event parameters. As with other Apple Event Manager data
structures based on data type AEDesc, the main difference between a
descriptor list and an AE record is the purpose for which each is used.
Unlike a descriptor list, an AE record must always contain a list of
keyword-specified descriptor records that describe Apple Event parameters.
It cannot contain keyword-specified descriptor records that describe Apple
event attributes. A descriptor list of data type AERecord contains no
Apple event attributes, only Apple event parameters.
