[removed] move objects from one array to another: Best approach?

Question

I have two arrays, called \'objects\' and \'appliedObjects\'. I\'m trying to come up with an elegant way in Javascript and/or Angular to move objects from one array to anot

Answer 1

You are altering the array while iterating on it, you will always miss some elements.

One way of doing it would be to use a third array to store the references of the objects that need to be removed from the array:

// "$scope.add" case
var objectsToRemove = [];

$scope.objects.forEach(function (value) {
  if (value.selected) {
    value.selected = false;
    $scope.appliedObjects.push(value);
    objectsToRemove.push(value);
  }
});

objectsToRemove.forEach(function (value) {
  $scope.objects.splice($scope.objects.indexOf(value), 1);
});
