function entity_example_basic_list_entities in Examples for Developers 7

Returns a render array with all entity_example_basic entities.

In this basic example we know that there won't be many entities, so we'll just load them all for display. See pager_example.module to implement a pager. Most implementations would probably do this with the contrib Entity API module, or a view using views module, but we avoid using non-core features in the Examples project.
