Hi, in one of my projects I have to get a slice from a BitArray.
I am trying to achieve that like this :
void foo(BitArray ba)
{
auto slice = ba[0..3]; // Assuming it has more than 4
elements
}
The problem is that I get an error :
"no operator [] overload for type BitArray".
Is there any other way to get a slice from a BitArray ?
Thanks,
Ezneh.
The problem is BitArray keeps multiple elements in one byte. You
can't return just three bits but in the best case one byte with 8
elements.
What could be done some internal range could be returned that
gives access to the bits. But it isn't implemented.
