NetPropertyBag.DeleteFromNet( bag )
j end

NetPropertyBag.GetBaglndex
Brief
Returns the index of a property bag.
Definition
! number NetPropertyBag.GetBaglndex( NetPropertyBag bag )
Arguments
bag - The instance of the property bag.
Return Values
The bag index.
Description
Returns the index of a property bag.
Please be aware that this index is only unique to the client that instantiated the bag, so each bag created on a client will have a unique value,
however, it is not a globally unique value across clients.

None
NetPropertyBag.GetEventBag
Brief
Returns an instance of the bag that is the focus of the current event.
Definition
! NetPropertyBag NetPropertyBag.GetEventBag()
Arguments
None
Return Values
The NetPropertyBag that is the focus of the current event.
Description
Returns an instance of the bag that is the focus of the current event. Only valid during a bag created/deleted event, as named by the
'on_bag_created' and 'on_bag_deleted' properties of the 'network' object component in the HDK's Object Editor application.
Examples
gNetBags = { };
function OnBagCreated( )
local bag = NetPropertyBag.GetEventBag( );
local bagld = bag:GetTypeld( );
�We keep a reference to a stats and skills bag which only one person creates
if bagld == NetPropertyBag.GetTypeldForBag( "statistics" ) then
gNetBags[ "gamestats" ] = bag;
elseif bagld == NetPropertyBag.GetTypeldForBag( "skills" ) then
gNetBags[ "skills" ] = bag;
end

print (s)
local array = NetPropertyBag.GetField( bag, "array" )
for i, v in ipairs(array) do
print(tostring(v))
end
local mytable = {}
local array = NetPropertyBag( bag, "array", mytable )
