I'm struggling with form-widgets:


<xs:attribute type="xs:string" name="list-name">
    <xs:annotation><xs:documentation>for list type and other multiple data/form types this is the name of the list in the context to iterate over</xs:documentation></xs:annotation>
</xs:attribute>

How does the list get put in the context?  Is it put into the context by <actions> (see below for the example app)?
Is it redundant in ListExamples as it is not being referred to anywhere?

Many thanks,

Chris

        <actions>
            <entity-condition entity-name="Example">

            </entity-condition>
        </actions>
       
        <field name="exampleId" title="${uiLabelMap.ExampleExampleId}" widget-style="buttontext">
            <hyperlink also-hidden="false" description="${exampleId}" target="EditExample?exampleId=${exampleId}"/>

        <field name="exampleName" title="${uiLabelMap.CommonName}"><display/></field>
