Enumerating and accessing a very simple object Topic is solved

[ItisI]

(after clicking "New Topic" I got this message in red
"The submitted form was invalid. Try submitting again.")

I'm lost - I've tried different topics in the doc, tried a search, can't seem to understand the explanations. The examples given are way above my pay grade.

I have created (successfully) the following object:

Code: Select all

newNumMonth := {
    January: "01",
    February: "02",
    March: "03",
    April: "04",
    May: "05",
    June: "06",
    July: "07",
    August: "08",
    September: "09",
    October: "10",
    November: "11",
    December: "12"
}

I can access
'newNumMonth.October'

but I don't know

1. how to check for a possible property, say look for  "May"
2. Nor can I enumerate the object to see what's in it.

Please help

You are posting in the v2 forum. See documentation for For and HasKey.

EDIT: OK for v2.

Found (1.) - by accident:

Code: Select all

MsgBox newNumMonth.HasProp("June")

[mikeyww]

Code: Select all

For month, monthNum in newNumMonth.OwnProps()
 MsgBox month ': ' monthNum

Explained: OwnProps

@mikeyww - I am still on v2 - my scripts are progressing well and, sir, I don't know what you do, but I swear I checked out the very page and now
This suddenly works?

Code: Select all

newNumMonth := {
    January: "01",
    February: "02",
    March: "03",
    April: "04",
    May: "05",
    June: "06",
    July: "07",
    August: "08",
    September: "09",
    October: "10",
    November: "11",
    December: "12"
}

s := ""
for k, v in newNumMonth.OwnProps()
    s .= k "=" v "`n"
MsgBox s

Thanks a lot!

And with your version:

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0
#Include "udf.ahk"
#Include "UDF-test.ahk"

    April: "04",
    May: "05",
    June: "06",
    July: "07",
    August: "08",
    September: "09",
    October: "10",
    November: "11",
    December: "12"
}
/*--------------------------------------------------------------

s := ""
for k, v in newNumMonth.OwnProps()
    s .= k "=" v "`n"
MsgBox s

For month, monthNum in newNumMonth.OwnProps()
    MsgBox month ': ' monthNum

Much obliged
