Remove all properties associated with an object.

Syntax

void
JS_ClearNonGlobalObject(JSContext *cx, JSObject *obj);
Name Type Description
cx JSContext * The context in which to clear the object. Requires request. In a JS_THREADSAFE build, the caller must be in a request on this JSContext.
obj JSObject * Object from which to delete all properties.

Description

JS_ClearNonGlobalObject removes all of obj's own properties, except the special __proto__ and __parent__ properties, in a single operation. Properties belonging to objects on obj's prototype chain are not affected.

To remove a single property from an object, use JS_DeleteProperty. To remove a single array object element, use JS_DeleteElement.
