define argument types in subs - KiZ - 02-25-2004
hmm... *goes and makes a test program*
Nope, it defitely doesnt work.
It highlights the period and says "Parameter type mismatch"
this is the test I used:
Code:
DECLARE SUB blah (i!, a!)
TYPE bler
z AS INTEGER
END TYPE
DIM array(10) AS bler
blah i, array(x).z
SUB blah (i, a)
print "hello"
END SUBdefine argument types in subs - na_th_an - 02-25-2004

Of course it does not work. You are declaring your parameters as SINGLE and you are attempting to pass INTEGER parameters.
Change the code to:
Code:
DECLARE SUB blah (i%, a%)
TYPE bler
z AS INTEGER
END TYPE
DIM array(10) AS bler
blah i%, array(x%).z
SUB blah (i%, a%)
print "hello"
END SUBdefine argument types in subs - KiZ - 02-25-2004

Dark you can pass a whole array as well:
Code:
TYPE mytype
ab as integer
cd as string * 10
END TYPE
SUB mysub(foo() as mytype, n%)
for i% = 1 to n%
print foo(i%).ab
print foo(i%).cd
next
END SUB
DIM myarr(1 to 20) as mytype
FOR m% = 1 to 20
myarr(m%).ab = m% + 5
myarr(m%).cd = CHR$(m% + 5)
NEXT
mysub(myarr(), 20)Havent tested it but it should work =).

Did my example work? I've to still test it =P.

Why do you do that? If I may ask?

Isnt it obvious? He doesnt want anyone to understand what he has written =P.

Well , he can just didtribute w/o the source. :*)

no, he will distribut the source.
