Hi Matt,
as my previous speakers said there are different ways in order to achieve the
goal. One of them could be the function qx.Class.hasProperty [1]
example:
if(qx.Class.hasProperty(object.constructor, element)) { …

Betreff: [qooxdoo-devel] Need some help - Determining Object Property Existence
Hi Qooxdoo team and contributors,
I use Qooxdoo in relation to a massive project of the U.S. National Weather
Service. We're not exactly new to Qooxdoo, we've been using qx since 1.x, and
our frontend is around 875k lines. Your project is outstanding, and helping to
protect the public. Thank you!
I've run into something likely above my knowledge level, and seem to be getting
results I cannot debug.
We have a qx object model of a weather/earth science observation. It may have
some number of several hundred possible properties.
I need to determine if the property exists, and if so, whether it meets certain
criteria.
I've read all I can on how this works and am still baffled. In some cases, I
can have results of which a console.log of the typeof returns nothing, not
null, not undefined, just nothing. This is throwing our various conditionals
into fits. I'd thought I'd fixed it with catching the qxobject.get(element)
error to determine existence, but this too is throwing strange results. I have
tried the 'in' operator and the 'hasOwnProperty' method without success.
The basic code is something like thing this. Element would be the raw property
ID. For instance, if the object has a 'getDewpoint()' method, element would be
'dewpoint'.
try {
if (object.get(element)) {
value = object.get(element);
return value;
} else {
// No element assigned
return null;
} catch(error) {
// It appears element was not set on object, so also return null
return null;
}
I'm sure I'm missing something here. Consider several hundred observations
being sent through a member function
encasing the above code. As a programmer, I'd expect either the value or null,
but logging it every way I know how shows
it justing "skipping" values with no element.
I'm hoping someone can enlighten me on my misunderstanding of this.
Thank you much,
Matt
