public property TCustomStringGrid.Rows[index: Integer] : TStrings |
Rows is an indexed TStrings property which provides access to the list with the String values for the columns in the row number specified in Index. Calls MapGetColsRows to retrieve the TStrings instance used as the value for the property.
The Rows implementation in Lazarus is different than the one in Delphi. In Lazarus, a new TStrings instance is created and used to retrieve the cell content. The programmer is responsible for freeing the object after use. Failure to do so will result in a memory leak.
Cast the property value to TStringList to use the features introduced in the descendent class. For example:
Avoid a memory leak when updating column content:
// this will cause a memory leak because the returned TStrings is not freed Grid.Rows[1].CommaText := '1,2,3,4,5'; Grid.Rows[2].Text := 'a'+#13#10+'s'+#13#10+'d'+#13#10+'f'+#13#10+'g'; // avoids the memory leak from above Lst := TStringList.Create; Lst.CommaText := '1,2,3,4,5'; Grid.Rows[1] := Lst; Lst.Free; Lst := TStringList.Create; Grids.Text := 'a'+#13#10+'s'+#13#10+'d'+#13#10+'f'+#13#10+'g'; Grid.Rows[2] := Lst; Lst.Free;
Store values from a string grid row to a list box:
procedure TForm1.FillListBox1; var StrTempList: TStringList; begin StrTempList := TStringList(Grid.Rows[4]); if StrTempList <> nil then begin ListBox1.Items.Assign(StrTempList); StrTempList.Free; end; end;
