Consistency:HasKey and variadic array paths
Posted: 13 May 2017, 10:42
Since some update it is possible to access objects and arrays via variadic syntax:
This was one of the best things that has happened to AHK recently.
What I'm asking for is that .hasKey( key ) should reflect this change.
What I'm asking for is that every path that you can put inside the [ ] after an array the same path input in the same way into .hasKey should produce a result:
I think this sort of consistency would really make things easier to program and to understand.
I do already know several solutions to this that you need to use depending on the occasion.
Code: Select all
value := array[ path* ]What I'm asking for is that .hasKey( key ) should reflect this change.
