Array in vJASS

[Dryvnt]

How do i make arrays in vJASS? (Or just JASS in general)

I need this for a WIP system

 

[Azlier]

function lol takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer array i
    local integer index = 0
    loop
        exitwhen index == 10
        set i[index] = index
        set index = index + 1
    endloop
endfunction

Here's an example of creating an integer array known as 'i' and setting indexes one through ten to a number.

local type array name

globals
     type array name
endglobals

Note that an array isn't an object like in other languages so you can't pass it as an argument to other functions. I suppose vJass has some solution for that such as struct with arrays or maybe dynamic arrays, check the documentation.

Oops. Misread the code. Curses!

That depends on what you was about to say
Well, it's fixed now ^^

 

[Azlier]

By any chance, did you originally have the keyword 'array' before the type? That's what I think I saw and was going to comment on, but I checked back and it wasn't so. Now I'm befuddled (that's a real word!). Oh, and you bumped my rep up drastically. Wow.

It wont work... Nothing happens... Have i done something wrong?

globals
real array wut
endglobals

function Harh takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer lol
    set wut[0] = 1
    set wut[1] = 2
    set wut[2] = 3
    loop
    exitwhen lol > 2
        call BJDebugMsg(R2S(wut[lol]))
        set lol = lol + 1
    endloop
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function Test takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger trig = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterTimerEventPeriodic( trig, 1.00) 
    call TriggerAddAction( trig, function Harh )
endfunction

 

[Azlier]

Give the integer 'lol' an initial value of zero. Computers find it difficult to calculate a value that doesn't quite exist.

Oh, and you can't use a globals block without NewGen. Bah, let me rewrite it.

function Harh takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer lol = 0
    local integer array wut
    set wut[0] = 1
    set wut[1] = 2
    set wut[2] = 3
    loop
    exitwhen lol > 2
        call BJDebugMsg(I2S(wut[lol]))
        set lol = lol + 1
    endloop
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function Test takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger trig = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterPlayerEvent(trig, Player(0) ,EVENT_PLAYER_END_CINEMATIC)
    call TriggerAddAction( trig, function Harh )
endfunction

To use that, simply press Escape ingame.

ALERT: You need your Test function to be named InitTrig_<Exact trigger name here>

Otherwise, it won't initialize... another reason why NewGen is so lovely.

 

[Dryvnt]

Nothing happens :/

Also i have NewGen

 

[Uberplayer]

scope MyScope initializer Test

function Harh takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer lol = 0
    local integer array wut
    set wut[0] = 1
    set wut[1] = 2
    set wut[2] = 3
    loop
    exitwhen lol > 2
        call BJDebugMsg(I2S(wut[lol]))
        set lol = lol + 1
    endloop
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function Test takes nothing returns nothing
    local trigger trig = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterPlayerEvent(trig, Player(0) ,EVENT_PLAYER_END_CINEMATIC)
    call TriggerAddAction( trig, function Harh )
endfunction

endscope

Function 'Test' has to run at some point.

 

[Azlier]

Well, there you go. Just make sure that those functions are private.

By any chance, did you originally have the keyword 'array' before the type? ... Oh, and you bumped my rep up drastically.

Off topic: I thought I would be able to buy your silence

 

[Dryvnt]

Thanks, this is really important to my system...

If i don't have any other questions (But i'm 99% sure i will) you guys wont hear from me in 1-3 days or more ...
But who cares.
