How to make a static array of a struct

03-02-2009, 12:32 PM

Unless I'm just making things up in my head, I have seen script like:

JASS:

struct A extends array
    endstruct

    //somewhere
    set A[0] = A.create()
    call A.whatever()
    //etc.

This is what I have:

JASS:

library Camera initializer Init requires Effect

    globals
        private constant integer MAX_QUEUED_CAMERAS = 10
    endglobals

    private struct PlayerCamera extends array

        private CameraTemplate array cam[MAX_QUEUED_CAMERAS]
        private integer intCountCamera = 0

    endstruct

    struct CameraTemplate extends Effect
    endstruct

    private function Init takes nothing returns nothing
    endfunction

endlibrary

but that won't compile. What's wrong? Also, if I can create an array of the struct, how do I limit it to 12 instances?

akolyt0r	The snippet you saw somewhere is wrong.. array structs cant be allocated/created you cant have array variables in a struct which extends array ... and i dont think you can limit the instance count a struct which extends an array.. JASS: private struct PlayerCamera[12] private CameraTemplate array cam[MAX_QUEUED_CAMERAS] private integer intCountCamera = 0 endstruct is that what you want ?

fX_	That is what I have in mind as an alternative. Just wanted to check if the above is possible; guess I just made it up in my head.
