[julia-users] fill! with copies

[Carlos Becker]

Hello all,

I wanted to create an array of an immutable type and initialize an empty 
copy in each (with the default constructor).
I am wondering which is the best way to do it, so far:

   immutable ChannVals
taus::Vector{Float64}
alphas::Vector{Float64}

ChannVals() = new( Float64[], Float64[] )
   end

   # create 10 new instances
   arr = ChannVals[ChannVals() for i=1:10]


Now, a neat but incorrect way is to do

   arr = Array( ChannVals, 10 )
   fill!(allVals, ChannVals())

because it will fill them with the same instance.
Is there a neat way, such as a fillwithcopies!() ?


Cheers.
