Items Property

Applies to TestComplete 15.68, last modified on October 16, 2024

The object-driven testing (ODT) functionality is deprecated. Do not use it to create new tests. It will be removed from the product in one of the future releases. As an alternative, you can create custom classes in your scripts. For more information, see Alternatives to the ODT functionality.

Description

The ArrayType.Items property returns the ArrayItem object that provides access to the array item specified by its index. The total number of elements in the array is specified by the Count property.

Note that the Items property is used by default and you can omit it in your scripts. Therefore, the following two lines are equivalent:

ArrayTypeObj.Items(1)
ArrayTypeObj(1)
Note: If you use DelphiScript, you need to enclose Index in square brackets: Items[Index].

Declaration

ArrayTypeObj.Items(Index)

Read-Only Property An ArrayItem object
ArrayTypeObj An expression, variable or parameter that specifies a reference to an ArrayType object
Index [in]    Required    Integer    

Applies To

The property is applied to the following object:

Parameters

The property has the following parameter:

Index

Specifies the index of the desired item in the array.

Property Value

The ArrayItem object that provides access to the specified array item.

Remarks

To specify the item value, use the ArrayItem.Value property. An array item can store any Variant-compatible value: string, integer, date, object, array, etc. The Value property is used by default in the ArrayItem object and you can omit it. Therefore, you can specify the item value in any of the following ways:

ArrayTypeObj.Items(1).Value = 10
ArrayTypeObj.Items(1) = 10
ArrayTypeObj(1) = 10 // since both Value and Items are default properties
Note: When you change the item value in an array that belongs to a class, TestComplete changes the item value in all the objects based on this class unless you have modified the item value in an object via script or manually.

Example

The code below obtains information about the NewProperty property of the array type and then posts the values of all of its items to the test log.

JavaScript, JScript

function GetItemValue()
{
    // Specifies the class to obtain information about
    var Obj = ODT.Classes.MyClass;
    // Specifies a property of the array type
    var Prop = Obj.NewProperty;
    // Iterates through the items
    for (var i = 0; i < Prop.Count; i++)
    {
       var PrVal = Prop.Items(i).Value;
       // Posts the current item's value to the test log
       Log.Message("Item " + i + ": " + PrVal);
    }
}

VBScript

Sub GetItemValue
    ' Specifies the class to obtain information about
    Set Obj = ODT.Classes.MyClass
    ' Specifies a property of the array type
    Set Prop = Obj.NewProperty
    ' Iterates through the items
    For i = 0 to Prop.Count-1
       PrVal = Prop.Items(i).Value
       ' Posts the current item's value to the test log
       Log.Message("Item " & i & ": " & PrVal)
    Next
End Sub

DelphiScript

function GetItemValue;
var Obj, Prop, i, PrVal;
begin
    // Specifies the class to obtain information about
    Obj := ODT.Classes.MyClass;
    // Specifies a property of the array type
    Prop := Obj.NewProperty;
    // Iterates through the items
    for i := 0 to Prop.Count-1 do
    begin
       PrVal := Prop.Items(i).Value;
       // Posts the current item's value to the test log
       Log.Message('Item ' + i + ': ' + PrVal);
    end;
end;

C++Script, C#Script

function GetItemValue()
{
    // Specifies the class to obtain information about
    var Obj = ODT["Classes"]["MyClass"];
    // Specifies a property of the array type
    var Prop = Obj["NewProperty"];
    // Iterates through the items
    for (var i = 0; i < Prop["Count"]; i++)
    {
       var PrVal = Prop["Items"](i)["Value"];
       // Posts the current item's value to the test log
       Log["Message"]("Item " + i + ": " + PrVal);
    }
}
