Objectlist.length fails after deleting objects from the list

Hi Martin,

why do you use value property?

ObjOccListFilter

get you array of functions, so you can use 

oobjocclist.length

only.

Hi Vladimir,

Yes, I was wondering about this as well. I think this was done automatically by converting the VBA script into Java. But sometime I have it with value, sometimes without. I'll try it without .value.

Thanks,

Martin

Ah - I think I got it. Somehow this "__delete" function from the convertertool is creating a mess. If I have understood it correctly it just moves the object that shall be deleted to the end of the array and then reduces the length of the array by one. Like the following with "arr" being the objectlist and "obj" the object to be deleted: 

if(arr[i]==obj) {
        for(j=i+1;j<arr.length;j++) {
          arr[j-1] = arr[j];
        }
        arr.length = arr.length - 1;

Anyway - I am going to avoid this function. Instead "splice" just works perfectly. In my case:

oobjocclist.splice(k,1);

It removes one (1) object from the array at the position of k - so easy!

And Vladimir, you have been right. The value property was nonsense. This pointed me in the right direct to see what other methods are available for arrays. Thanks for the hint!

Best regards, Martin

Hi Martin,

one more thing - try to delete occurences by Occ.Remove() method and I recommend you to decrement variable in for loop:

for (i = oobjocclist.length - 1; i >= 0; i--)
     Occ.Remove();

Thanks Vladimir, good point. But in this case I want to keep the occurence in the model, I just want to delete the object from the array as it is not needed for further operations in the script.
