CCFXStringSet::GetCount
int CCFXStringSet::GetCount(void)
Gets the number of strings contained in the string set. This value can be used along
with CCFXStringSet::GetString to iterate over the strings in the set (when iterating,
remember that the index values for strings in the list begin at 1).
Returns the number of strings contained in the string set.
Example
The following example demonstrates using GetCount along with
CCFXStringSet::GetString to iterate over a string set and write the contents of the list
back to the user:
int nNumItems = pStringSet->GetCount() ;
for ( int i=1; i<=nNumItems; i++ )
{
pRequest->Write( pStringSet->GetString( i ) ) ;
pRequest->Write( "<BR>" ) ;
}
CCFXStringSet::GetIndexForString
int CCFXStringSet::GetIndexForString(LPCSTR lpszString )
Does a case insensitive search for the passed string.
If the string is found, its index within the string set is returned. If it is not found, the
constant CFX_STRING_NOT_FOUND is returned.
lpszString
String to search for.
Example
The following example illustrates searching for a string and throwing an exception if it
is not found:
CCFXStringSet* pAttribs = pRequest->GetAttributeList() ;
int iDestination =
pAttribs->GetIndexForString("DESTINATION") ;
if ( iDestination == CFX_STRING_NOT_FOUND )
{
pRequest->ThrowException(
"DESTINATION attribute not found."
"The DESTINATION attribute is required "
"by this tag." ) ;
}
