Can a method return an indeterminate array?

Hi.

The documentation has the example (below) for passing indeterminate arrays.

DEFINE VARIABLE x AS INTEGER EXTENT.

RUN foo (OUTPUT x). 

PROCEDURE foo: 
   DEFINE OUTPUT PARAMETER x AS INTEGER EXTENT. 
   EXTENT(x) = 4. /* Fixes the extent to 4 */ 
END.

 Doing something similar for a method though doesn't seem to work.

"** An array was specified in an expression, on the right-hand side of an assignment, or as a parameter when no array is appropriate or expected. (361)"

DEFINE VARIABLE cList AS CHARACTER EXTENT.

myObject = NEW Object().

cList = myObject:getList().

/* method from class */
METHOD PUBLIC CHARACTER EXTENT getList ():
    
  DEFINE VARIABLE cList AS CHARACTER EXTENT NO-UNDO.
    
  EXTENT(cList) = 4.
    
  RETURN cList.
    
END METHOD.
