Array List Get Next Question
« on: August 10, 2017, 10:08:56 PM »
Hi,

I am trying to loop through and perform actions in an array list. Start Index is 0 and End Index is a variable in this case. How can I perform actions one time only for the index 0 item? If the Start Index is 0 and End Index is 0, it's doing an infinite loop. If the Start Index is 0 and End Index is 1, it performs actions on Index 0 and Index 1 items which I only want to perform actions on Index 1 item.

How should I achieve this?

Thanks.

Hi,

 uhm, yes, this is problematic, we never accounted for the case you want to only iterate through the first item... Good point!

Ok, so to avoid breaking changes with existing project, I updated ArrayGetNext2 which will now work properly, the change is that you have to set start and end to none for it to default to 0 and array length, if you set start and end to 0 it will iterate to the first index and done.

so get ArrayGetNext2 for your case.

Let me know how it goes.

Bye,

 Jean

Hi Jean,

I tested it and it works great. Would it be possible to add the same functionality to Array List (under ArrayMaker/ArrayList tab) as well?

Thanks a lot for your help! :)
