toArray Method (JScript 5.6)
Returns a standard JScript array converted from a VBArray.
safeArray.toArray( )
Remarks
The required safeArray reference is a VBArray object.
The conversion translates the multidimensional VBArray into a single dimensional JScript array. Each successive dimension is appended to the end of the previous one. For example, a VBArray with three dimensions and three elements in each dimension is converted into a JScript array as follows:
Suppose the VBArray contains: (1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), (7, 8, 9). After translation, the JScript array contains: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9.
There is currently no way to convert a JScript array into a VBArray.
Example
The following example consists of three parts. The first part is VBScript code to create a Visual Basic safe array. The second part is JScript code that converts the Visual Basic safe array to a JScript array. Both of these parts go into the <HEAD> section of an HTML page. The third part is the JScript code that goes in the <BODY> section to run the other two parts.
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
<!--
Function CreateVBArray()
Dim i, j, k
Dim a(2, 2)
k = 1
For i = 0 To 2
For j = 0 To 2
a(j, i) = k
document.writeln(k)
k = k + 1
Next
document.writeln("<BR>")
Next
CreateVBArray = a
End Function
-->
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript">
<!--
function VBArrayTest(vbarray)
{
var a = new VBArray(vbarray);
var b = a.toArray();
var i;
for (i = 0; i < 9; i++)
{
document.writeln(b[i]);
}
}
-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JScript">
<!--
VBArrayTest(CreateVBArray());
