DeleteProperty
DeleteProperty
Use this method to delete a property from the property list based on its
index (relative) position in the list. DeleteProperty uses a zero-based
index. After an item is deleted from the list, the list repacks itself.
Syntax
PCDPropertyList.DeleteProperty( lngNdx )
Parameter
Returns
Returns an
HRESULT
to receive the result of the call.
S_OK
indicates
success. Languages such as JavaScript, Visual Basic, and VBScript
return this as a function value.
Usage
Indexes in the list are not guaranteed to match the position in which
they were first added to the list. For example, assume you have a
of four items, with index values from 0 to 3. Perhaps
you want to delete the item with index value 1 and update the item with
index value 3. After you delete the first item, the list repacks itself. Now
the item you want to update has an index value of 2, not 3. For this
reason, you should use the
method to determine the
index item to delete.
