Fills a list with the names of all fields in all indexes defined for the dataset.

Pascal
function GetKeyFieldNames(List: TWideStrings): Integer; overload;
C++
__fastcall int GetKeyFieldNames(TWideStrings List);
Description

Call GetKeyFieldNames to fill a string list with information about the indexes that are available on the database server for this dataset. 

For every index defined on the server for the dataset, GetKeyFieldNames adds a string to the string list specified by List. Each string is a semicolon-delimited set of field names that lists the fields in a single index. 

TCustomSQLDataSet does not explicitly use these indexes. GetKeyFieldNames can be useful for composing SQL commands dynamically that need to use an index to access fields.
