IStringList.IndexOf

Syntax

IndexOf(Value: String): Integer;

Parameters

Value. Value that should be found.

Description

The IndexOf method directly searches for the specified value.

Comments

The method returns element index in case of successful search, and -1 if the value is not found.

Example

Sub UserProc;
Var
    StrL: IStringList;
    i: Integer;
Begin
    StrL := New StringList.Create;
    For i := 0 To Math.RandBetweenI(50, 100) Do
        StrL.Add("Number " + Math.RandBetweenI(0, 100).ToString);
    End For;
    i := StrL.IndexOf("Number 25");
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example a dynamic array of strings is generated, the element with the Number 25 value is searched, and in case of successful search the "i" variable contains index of this element.
