I'm learning a great framework mORMot for Delphi, and I found plenty of useful functions to handle with Variant
(in SynCommons).
Now I want to change some property-names of a Variant
, but after a search I have not found such a function, so I decide to write one:
program Project7;
{$APPTYPE CONSOLE}
{$R *.res}
uses
System.SysUtils, SynCommons;
function VariantChangeNames(var V: Variant; const FromNames, ToNames: TRawUTF8DynArray): Boolean;
var
Name: RawUTF8;
PData: PDocVariantData;
Val: Variant;
i, k: Integer;
begin
Result := False;
PData := DocVariantData(V);
i := 0;
for Name in FromNames do
begin
k := PData^.GetValueIndex(Name);
if k <> -1 then
begin
Val := PData^.Value[k];
PData^.Value[ToNames[i]] := Val;
PData^.Delete(k); // If delete before setting value, Val will be incorrect.
Result := True;
end;
Inc(i);
end;
end;
var
V: Variant;
begin
V := TDocVariant.New();
V.Name := 'John';
V.Age := 20;
VariantChangeNames(V, ['Name'], ['RealName']);
Writeln(VariantToString(V)); // {"Age":20,"RealName":"John"}
end.
VariantChangeNames
I wrote may not be very efficient since it needs to do both delete
and add
. It seems that directly modify the VName
member of the TDocVariantData
is the most efficient way, but it's a private member.
Any advice? Thanks in advance.
BTW: The mail server of mORMot official forum seems to have a problem, when I post a topic, it shows:
An error was encountered
Error: Could not connect to smtp host "217.70.184.11" (111) (Connection refused).
This question was solved in mORMot forum.
