IDocList get item by index?

Is there a option to get key and value with index of item?

DocList.Items[0].key
DocList.Items[0].Value

I mean somthing like this:

for docdict in DocList do
   docdict .get_item_by_index(0);

get item value for docdict with index.

Hi anouri,

jsonobjects has per definition as far as i know no real order. So direct access via an index is a little bit risky, if the creator will change his output/implementation.

You can use the DocDict.GetEnumerator to loop through the object elements.

I can also have a look at the implementation of the interator. But direct access is not possible without "pointer magic" i think.

Re: IDocList get item by index?

order is not matter. suppose json = {"a": 1,"b":2}

fdocdict := DocDict (json);

what is the problem with:

fdocdict[0].key
fdocdict[0].value

or somthing like that.
maybe conevrting docdict to varinat can help?

The easiest is to use an enumerator for this.

var
  f: TDocDictFields;
...
  for f in DocDict do
  begin
    /// use f.Value / f.Key
