Sorting strings

WEB TMS WEB Core
1

Are the lack of the TStringList.Sorted property and TStringList.Sort method in WEB Core oversights or is there a Javascript problem behind this?

I have no idea what this is based on.

This code works as expected in TMS WEB Core:

var
  sl: TStringList;
  i: integer;
begin
  sl := TStringList.Create;
  sl.Add('Bruno');
  sl.Add('Pieter');
  sl.Add('John');

  sl.Sort;

  for i := 0 to sl.Count -  1 do
    console.log(sl.Strings[i]);

  sl.Free;
end;

and this code too:

var
  sl: TStringList;
  i: integer;
begin
  sl := TStringList.Create;
  sl.Add('Bruno');
  sl.Add('Pieter');
  sl.Add('John');

  sl.Sorted := true;

  for i := 0 to sl.Count -  1 do
    console.log(sl.Strings[i]);

  sl.Free;
end;

Well, my question came from the fact that in my WEB Core 2.6.1.0 sl.Sort and sl.Sorted both fetch up identifier not found "Sorted" (or "Sort") errors from LSP and the compiler. Do I need to update my version?

EDIT: Oops, I had declared sl: TStrings; and then sl := TStringList.Create I need to revisit the difference I guess!

I got into this because I thought that TCombobox.Items.Sorted := True should work and it doesn't.

I was misled by the fact that ComboBox1.Sorted := True is legal in VCL, despite the fact that its Items property is TStrings, not TStringList.

We will expose TWebComboBox.Sorted: boolean for VCL compatibility

Thank you, Bruno, that will simplify my code.
