ok! i was cofused from two things
1) in previous message about static arrays Fabien said that: >yes a static array is not an object ... that's why it's a little bit >deprecated :) > > >anther way : > >dim htmpArray as integer[]= [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] > so a DIM htmpArray as integer[]= [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10] i thought was a static. and 2) --------------------------------- DIM aInt2 AS Integer[3] aInt2[0] = 1 aInt2[1] = 20 aInt2[2] = 30 aInt2.Add(40) 'here is the resize of the array aInt2.Add(50) aInt2.Add(60) PRINT aInt2[3] PRINT aInt2[4] PRINT aInt2[5] --------------------------------- In my gambas2-2.21 rev3300 there is no error, nor compilation nor execution!
