Hi Folks.
If I have an OrderedCollection and convert it to Set via asSet, am I guaranteed that the resulting Set contains elements in the same order as the OrderedCollection?
Here is my problem.
I have an OrderedCollection with the same element in it twice. By same element, I mean they are the same object.
*an OrderedCollection( A NESTED TABLE CELL
B A NESTED TABLE CELL
) *
Above, the first and third elements are the same XMLElement. I now this because if I inspect them and then change one, the other changes.
if I run asSet on the OrderedCollection, I get what I need:
*a Set( A NESTED TABLE CELL
B)*
In that conversion, can I rely on that Ordering being preserved?
If not, a pointer to the correct select/reject/inject/detect...sort of thing would be much appreciated.
cheers.
