indexOf Bug?

[Oli Ullmann]

Shouldn't the code in this snippet print out the index of “Button1”?
I only get -1

const buttons = Content.getAllComponents("Button");

Console.print(buttons.indexOf(Button1, 0, 0));

@Oli-Ullmann You haven't declared "Button1". Your array contains objects, not component names.

So this would work

Console.print(buttons.indexOf(buttons[0]));

But this wouldn't

Console.print(buttons.indexOf("Button1"));

@d-healey
Hey David,
Thanks, that makes sense!

Is there a way to find a specific object within an array, or do I have to declare it with a variable first?

[ustk]

@Oli-Ullmann you could check for the id of that object

[Oli Ullmann]

@ustk
But how?

[ustk]

@Oli-Ullmann

 const buttons = Content.getAllComponents("Button");
 
 for (b in buttons)
 {
	 if (b.getId() == "Button1")
	 	Console.print(buttons.indexOf(b));
 }

Great, I didn't think of that. Thank you very much! :-)
