Uncaught ReferenceError: n is not defined in getStringFromDB function

[Koboom]

Hello,

I encountered an issue in the code where the variable n is not defined, leading to the error "Uncaught ReferenceError: n is not defined". The error occurs in the following code block:

function getStringFromDB(buffer, start, length) {
  var outstr = "";
  for (n = start; n < start + length; n++) {
    outstr += String.fromCharCode(buffer.getUint8(n));
  }
  return outstr;
}

The solution is to define the n variable using let in the for loop to avoid the error:

function getStringFromDB(buffer, start, length) {
  var outstr = "";
  for (let n = start; n < start + length; n++) {
    outstr += String.fromCharCode(buffer.getUint8(n));
  }
  return outstr;
}

This fix will resolve the error. Please let me know if I can assist further. Thank you!

i am not seeing this function in our code.
it also seems to be javascript, our code is in C.

can you point to the exact (file) location you see it?
