Enumerator Object (JavaScript)

Enables enumeration of items in a collection.

Syntax

enumObj = new Enumerator([collection])   

Parameters

enumObj
Required. The variable name to which the Enumerator object is assigned.

collection
Optional. Any Collection object.

Remarks

Collections differ from arrays in that the members of a collection are not directly accessible. Instead of using indexes, as you would with arrays, you can move the current item pointer only to the first or next element of a collection.

The Enumerator object provides a way to access any member of a collection and behaves similarly to the For...Each statement in VBScript.

Example

The following code shows the usage of the Enumerator object:

var bytesPerGB = 1024 * 1024 * 1024;  

var fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");  

document.write(fso.Drives);  
var e = new Enumerator(fso.Drives);  

var driveString = "";  

e.moveFirst();  
while (e.atEnd() == false)  
{  
    var drv = e.item();  

    driveString += drv.Path + " - ";  

    if (drv.IsReady){  
        var freeGB = drv.FreeSpace / bytesPerGB;  
        var totalGB = drv.TotalSize / bytesPerGB;  

        driveString += freeGB.toFixed(3) + " GB free of ";  
        driveString += totalGB.toFixed(3) + " GB";  
    }  
    else{  
        driveString += "Not Ready";  
    }  

    driveString += "<br />";;  

    e.moveNext();  
}  
document.write(driveString);  

// Output: <drive information
