Hi,
I've been having some problems with assigning variables to arrays. If an attempt is made to compile the following: 1. double signal01 = 0.4; 2. double signal02 = 0.7; 3. double results[] = {0.4, 0.7}; // No Problems... 4. 5. double results01[] = {signal01, signal02}; // Errors! (See below) I get the following errors on line 5: 'signal02' - variable is already defined '}' - comma or semicolon expected If I assign the variables to the array using the other method - i.e: 1. double signal01 = 0.4; 2. double signal02 = 0.7; 3. double results[] = {0.4, 0.7}; 4. 5. double results01[2]; 6. results01[0] = signal01; 7. results01[1] = signal02; I don't have any problems. I'm presuming this is a bug but if I'm doing something wrong, I'd appreciate someone letting me know? Cheers! Coen Willemse |

arrays, static and external variables can be initialized with constants only

Ah - that explains a lot! Thanx
Here's another one for you. If I use one of the following commands to get user input: extern string stuff = "SDFSDFGSGFS"; or simply extern string stuff; and start the expert, the expert startup page (where you can fill in all the expert options) won't allow me to change the string. If I use any other types of "extern" type variable declarations, (e.g double, int etc), I can change the user options at will. Is this a bug or is it not possible to get user input in 'sting' format? |

Hi,
There still seems to be a problem with the 'extern string' side of things. It appears that if the string is initialized using either: extern string stuff; or extern string stuff = ""; the user input screen will allow you to input a string but 'stuff' will not be assigned to the value that is input and a "not initialized string" error is generated. If the string is initialized using: extern string stuff = "some default stringy thingy"; everything works fine |
