Generic array field syntax?

[jondecker76]

I’ve been trying to figure this out for a bit now.  I would like to have a generic array as a field in a class method, but I just can’t seem to get the syntax right.  Ive tried..

Monkey

field arr<T>[] field arr<T>:T[] field arr:<T>[] field arr<T>:[]

1 2 3 4 5

field arr<T>[] field arr<T>:T[] field arr:<T>[] field arr<T>:[]

and various other attempts, but just can’t seem to get it to work.  I would like the “arr” field to be an array of whichever object I want to set it as.  Is this possible?

 

Thanks

You can use the type Variant to set it to whichever object you want.

Monkey

#Import "<monkey>"</p> <p>Using monkey..</p> <p>Class Name Field arr:Variant[] Field anything:Variant End</p> <p>Function Main() Local c := New Name</p> <p> c.arr = New Variant[10]</p> <p> c.anything = 11</p> <p> Print Int( c.anything )</p> <p> c.anything = "String"</p> <p> Print String( c.anything )</p> <p> c.anything = New UByte[10]</p> <p> c.arr[0] = New Int[10] c.arr[1] = New Float[4] c.arr[2] = New String[5]</p> <p> c.arr[0].SetArrayElement( 5, 15)</p> <p> Local len := c.arr[0].GetArrayLength()</p> <p> For Local i := 0 Until len Print Int( c.arr[0].GetArrayElement( i ) ) Next End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39

#Import "<monkey>"   Using monkey..   Class Name     Field arr:Variant[]     Field anything:Variant End   Function Main()     Local c := New Name          c.arr = New Variant[10]       c.anything = 11          Print Int( c.anything )          c.anything = "String"       Print String( c.anything )          c.anything = New UByte[10]           c.arr[0] = New Int[10]     c.arr[1] = New Float[4]     c.arr[2] = New String[5]       c.arr[0].SetArrayElement( 5, 15)          Local len := c.arr[0].GetArrayLength()       For Local i := 0 Until len         Print Int( c.arr[0].GetArrayElement( i ) )     Next End

A generic class with an array would look like this:

Monkey

#Import "<monkey>"</p> <p>Using monkey..</p> <p>Class Name<T> Field arr:T[] End</p> <p>Function Main()</p> <p> Local i := New Name<Int> i.arr = New Int[10]</p> <p> Local f := New Name<Float> f.arr = New Float[10]</p> <p> Local b := New Name<Byte> b.arr = New Byte[10]</p> <p>End

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21

#Import "<monkey>"   Using monkey..   Class Name<T>     Field arr:T[] End   Function Main()       Local i := New Name<Int>     i.arr = New Int[10]       Local f := New Name<Float>     f.arr = New Float[10]       Local b := New Name<Byte>     b.arr = New Byte[10]   End

Thanks!  Quite helpful!

Generics are always associated with a function, class or struct. Generic interfaces were not available, I think it’s not available yet.
