Creating an empty .net array: syntax?

Hi!
How do I create an empty .net array with count of elements out of a variable?
VO:
local aArray as array
iElements := 100
aArray := ArrayCreate( iElements )

X#:
local aX as string[]
iElements := 100
aX := ???

I am aware of
aX := <string>{"Alpha", "Beta"}
but how do I create one without literals?

Hi Kurt,

Code: Select all

aData := string[]{ 10 }
Please see also here: https://docs.xsharp.it/doku.php?id=net_array

Thanks Wolfgang!
Now it works!
Was already looking in these docs, but blind...
I had tried aX := <string[]>{ iElements }
There I got "cannot implicitly convert type 'int' to 'string[]'

Hi Kurt,

the wiki has a search box in the upper right corner <g>.

Put "array" there and click on the search button. The correct article will be at top with 15 hits.
