ISDBApplication::PlaylistByID

From MediaMonkey Wiki

CoClass SDBApplication, Interface ISDBApplication

Property Get PlaylistByID(ID As Long) As ISDBPlaylist

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
ID	Long	ID of the playlist to get (use -1 to get root of all playlists)

Property description

Retrieves SDBPlaylist object of the given playlist ID.

When ID < 0, the root (virtual) playlist node is returned. Then you can use its ChildPlaylists property to get all the first-level playlists.

WARNING: Also if no playlist with the specified ID exists, the root (virtual) playlist will be returned. Be aware of this fact, especially if you are planning to remove a playlist. Making an error could remove the root, and so all playlists.

Introduced in MediaMonkey 4.0

Example code

Dim Playlist : Set Playlist = SDB.PlaylistByTitle(-1)   ' Playlist represents the root (virtual) playlist
Dim List : Set List = Playlist.ChildPlaylists           ' List represents a list of all first-level playlists
 
Dim i, itm
 
For i = 0 To List.Count - 1                             ' For all (first-level) playlists in List...
  Set itm = List.Item(i)                                ' ... print out the number of child playlists and tracks
  fout.WriteLine itm.Title & " (" & CStr(itm.ChildPlaylists.Count) & "/" & CStr(itm.Tracks.Count) & ")"
Next
 
' in this case, fout represents a TextStream object (not shown here)
