TAbstractNamedVariants.IndexOfName Method

Returns the index of the first item in the list with a specified name.

Pascal

function IndexOfName(const Name: string): Integer; virtual;

C++

virtual __fastcall int IndexOfName(const AnsiString Name);

Description

Call IndexOfName to determine where a name appears in the list, if it appears at all.

Name is the name to locate in the list.

If Name appears as the name part of a name/Variant pair in the list, IndexOfName returns the index of the first item with that name. If there are no items with the specified name, IndexOfName returns –1.

Note: In TAbstractNamedVariants, IndexOfName uses a case-insensitive comparison to locate the name. In descendant classes that treat strings case sensitively, IndexOfName makes a case sensitive comparison.
