RE: 5d array ( counting number of elements )
I'm not really getting any errors... just I find my application really slow. ( now I realize that perhaps I could forego using the array at all ). So now ( I'm going to redesign this part of the app )... but what if I did want to count the number of elements? BTW I did a CFDUMP on the array and was suprised to see that CFMX created a 3d array with two structures!!! Here's how I did it.. >Welcome to the list!

RE: 5d array ( counting number of elements )
Welcome to the list! More information on your problem would be useful. How did you nest your arrays to get five dimensional arrays (CF only supports 3 dimensional arrays directly)? What version of CF are we talking about? What error are you getting? Are you sure that the last element is, in fact, an array (have you run an IsArray() on it to be sure)? I would do that first (test for the existence of the array) first - also you may try CFDUMPing the array to examine how it's being constructed/viewed by CF. I'm curious tho' - why use a 5 dimensional array? I've just never heard of a problem that needed one. (You'll find this helpful. but we're also downright inquisitive.)

First question.. I have a five dimensional array... I want to get the number of items located in the last array element. How do I do this..? in the example below you see there are three elements at the last position. I've tried but that throws errors after the third array element. aExample[1][2][1][1][1] = "blah" aExample[1][2][1][1][2] = "blah2" aExample[1][2][1][1][3] = "blah3" _ __ Daniel Farmer Web Developer Consultant P: 613.284.1684 _ [Todays Threads] [This Message] [Subscription] [Fast Unsubscribe] [User Settings]
RE: 5d array ( counting number of elements )
Your question made me realize that perhaps I don't even need to use the array...no wonder my app was so slow... oh well thanks :) >Hi Everyone, I'm new to the list. > >First question..
