ARRAY over 4096 elements

[avista]

I need to use array longer than 4096 elements (multidimensional if possible), and it is verry important to be used in LISTBOX.

Some sugestions ?[/b]

[Antonio Linares]

Clipper arrays are limited to 4096 elements. There is a workaround that consists on using the latest element to point to another array:

aTest[ 4096 ] = Array( 4096 )

Anyhow we do recommend you to port your Clipper application to Harbour/xHarbour where these limitations no longer exist

Hi Antonio and thanks for fast answer.

-> aTest[ 4096 ] = Array( 4096 )


I will try to use this ....but how to use it in LISTBOX and view that 9191 elements ?

Best regards,
Pande.

You can use a TWBrowse and calculate the correct position of the item to show for each index. For example (not tested):

Code: Select all

FUNCTION GETITEM( aArray, i )

    IF i < 4096; RETURN aArray[ i ]; ENDIF

    RETURN aArray[ 4096, i - 4095 ]

Firts, Antonio is right.

Second, try something like this with your code:

ArPrgElem[6] = TArray():New( your length array )

@ 1,1 LISTBOX ArPrgElem[3] ;
FIELDS "" ;
UPDATE ;
OF IdeArra4[5][NumPrg][1] ;
ON LEFT DBLCLICK TeclaFWD( VK_RETURN, nFlags, IdeArra)

// ArPrgElem[6] es el objeto de las array de arrays
//
ArPrgElem[3]:nAt = 1
ArPrgElem[3]:bLine = { || { ArPrgElem[6]:xGet(ArPrgElem[3]:nAt) } }
ArPrgElem[3]:bGoTop = { || ArPrgElem[3]:nAt := 1 }
ArPrgElem[3]:bGoBottom = { || ArPrgElem[3]:nAt := Eval( ArPrgElem[3]:bLogicLen ) }
ArPrgElem[3]:bSkip = { | nWant, nOld | nOld := ArPrgElem[3]:nAt, ArPrgElem[3]:nAt += nWant, ;
ArPrgElem[3]:nAt := Max( 1, Min( ArPrgElem[3]:nAt, ;
Eval(ArPrgElem[3]:bLogicLen) ) ), ArPrgElem[3]:nAt - nOld }
ArPrgElem[3]:bLogicLen = { || ArPrgElem[6]:nIndMax }
ArPrgElem[3]:cAlias = "ARRAY"

ArPrgElem[3]:GoTop()
ArPrgElem[3]:nClrText := {|| ColorBloqueo( ArPrgElem[6]:xGet(ArPrgElem[3]:nAt) )}
ArPrgElem[3]:bRClicked := { |nRow,nCol,nKeyFlags| PasaMenu(nRow, nCol, nKeyFlags, IdeArra ) }
ArPrgElem[3]:nLineStyle := 0
