Keywords: arrainfo() arrsize
I'm working with an array and when it's boundaries are reached I need to make it bigger.
Is there a way to figure out the size and address of the array so I could copy it binary, cause it takes some time to copy each element into the new array especially with very big arrays.
So what I want to do is something like this (Pseudo-Code):
;********** Example Code ************ ;Get address+size for binary copy Addr=Address(OldArray) Size=ArrSize(OldArray) ;Create new array with more elements (let's assume old array has 800 Elements ArrDimension(NewArray,1000) ;Get Target Address NewAddr=Address(NewArray) BinaryCopy(NewAddr,0,Addr,0,Size) ************ End Example ***********Anyone have an idea on how to achieve tihs cause I can't find functions like Address or ArrSize...
myArray[num] =""OR
myArray[num] = 0You cannot alter the size of an array It is a fixed size. All you could possibly do is create a new one and copy the data.
ArrInfo() will answer most of your questions about size of current array.
Perhaps the best thing to do is set your original array size to some impossible limit (given what you are doing) then use ArrInfo() to determine what you have filled, which would probably use less memory than having two arrays at once.
