Class / Class within Class/ & Array problems

[some1uk03]

Hello,

I seem to be having some trouble with Classes & arrays etc...

So my structure is as follows:

Class1
--Method
--Method
--Class2.Property
--Class2.Property
--Class2.Class3.Property
--Class2.Class3.Property

But Assuming Class2 needs to be an Array(0 to 10) thats when we have problems assigning things!!

Dim test as Class2
Set test = new class2

test = myFunction(myString)


where myFunction is:

myFunction(test as string) as Class2
dim dummyObg AS CLASS2
set dummyOBg as new class2

redim dummyobj(0 to 10)
'code
'code

myFunction = dummyobj

end Function


Do i have to copy each array separately?
i.e array(0) = testarray(0)
array(1) = testarray(1)
etc.. etc..

Can't you just do: array = testarray ?

How can Class2 be an array? It's a Class.

Skinny this down to a very simple example and maybe we'll be able to see where you have gone wrong.

It would not hurt a bit to STOP. Then go read the manual on Programming with Objects which you can also find in your MSDN CDs.

The above was off of my head, rather than copy/paste from the actual project


Actually I need a break to get my head around!!

You right! How can a class be a array!!
I need an object referencing the class and that to be an array

Im basically trying to strip things down, rather than have many objects etc...

I need: i.e Class2 being an array would be nice
Class1.Class2(3).Method.Class3.Value

All you have to do is to give it a try. Then you will see what works and what doesn't work.


A class cannot be an array but you can have an array of classes.

Class1.Class2(3).Method.Class3.Value

Looks like something I saw in a Java or C/C++ program.

Class1 creates instances of Class2 and is refering to the 3rd instance. Is that what you are intending it to be?

Class2 has a method called Method (in your example)

Method has an instance of Class3 and Class3 has a property called Value


So, I guess you have this:

Class1.Class2(3).Method.Class3.Value

Is this what your intentios are?


I don't know if that will work or not.
