Where is _ArrayCreate??

[Kidney]

Just downloaded the latest autoit from here: http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit-script-editor/downloads/

Trying to use a UDF that was written some time ago that calls the function  _ArrayCreate in the Array.au3.

 

The Array.au3 that was included in the latest download apparently doesnt have it? Where can i get the older verision of Array.au3 that has the function _ArrayCreate???

It's deprecated, for good reasons.

thank you thank you!

it looks like it. I just needed to see what that function was originally made to do. i can rewrite the UDF im using so it doesnt use this function anymore.

That is probably the best way to go. Notice that with the latest release you don't have to specify any dimension of an array when it is initialized, even with incomplete init:

#include <Array.au3>
Local $aSample = [ ['a'], [1, 2], [True, False, "Don't know"] ]
_ArrayDisplay($aSample)
