[SOLVED] CompoundArray issue
« on: November 06, 2012, 02:40:30 PM »
Greetings.

I'm not pretty sure to be understanding CompoundArray property. According to this thread below, CompoundArray only works for two objects. Pretty interesting if I might want to use more than two, but, instead... I wanna use ONE. And, working with the CompoundArray, defining only one parameter, I get the error that no constructor for CompoundArray is defined for only one parameter. Is there any alternate way to compound arrays, or should I use CompoundArray with a unused parameter? What I would like to avoid is unnecessary memory allocation.

Thanks in Advance.

I guess I've got my solution, thus I'm marking this as solved.

It's just a matter of defining a public array, and, when setting its size, it'll generate the fields to define each array position's value.

Hi,

 There are standards actions you should open scripts from to see how compound arrays are working, for example the "fsm state switch":

now, if you want simply an array for a single fsmValue, yes, it's only a matter of appending [] to the variable class like the "build string" action:

bye,
