OBJECT Get type
| OBJECT Get type ( {* ;} object ) -> Function result | ||||||||
| Parameter | Type | Description | ||||||
| * | Operator |
|
If specified, object is an object name (string) If omitted, object is a variable | |||||
| object | Form object |
|
Object name (if * is specified) or Variable (if * is omitted) | |||||
| Function result | Longint |
|
Type of object | |||||
The OBJECT Get type command returns the type of the object designated by the object and * parameters in the current form.
Passing the optional * parameter indicates that the object parameter is an object name (string). This syntax is mandatory if you are processing static objects such as lines or rectangles.
If you do not pass this parameter, it indicates that the object parameter is a variable. In this case, you pass a variable reference instead of a string.
Note: If you apply this command to a set of objects, the type of the last object is returned.
The value returned corresponds to one of the following constants, available in the "Form Object Types" theme:
| Constant | Type | Value |
| Object type 3D button | Longint | 16 |
| Object type 3D checkbox | Longint | 26 |

You want to load a form and get a list of all the objects of list boxes that it contains.
FORM LOAD("MyForm")
