# getIndexes(_:range:) Copies the indexes stored in the index path from the positions specified by the position range into the specified indexes. ``` func getIndexes(_ indexes: UnsafeMutablePointer, range positionRange: NSRange) ``` ## Parameters `indexes` Pointer to a C array of at least as many objects as specified by the length of `positionRange`. On return, the array holds the index path’s indexes. `positionRange` A range of valid positions within the index path. If the location plus the length of `positionRange` is greater than the length of the index path, this method raises an [`rangeException`](/documentation/Foundation/NSExceptionName/rangeException). ## Discussion You must allocate the memory for the C array. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
