Structure Pointer ?

We have structure for Byte, Long, Quad, Float, String, etc
What about a structure for pointer ?
Why this ?
I have an array of pointer
And i need to copy this array to another array
So i have to write
Code: Select all
CopyMemory(*Array(), *TempArray(), SizeOf(Pointer) * 27)
May be this structure can be add in resident file ? or may be i'm wrong to do like this ?

Hmm!
Maybe you should request CloneArray() and CloneList() instead?
(creates a exact copy/duplicate of a array or list)
In any case, on 32bit systems *pointer is the same as pointer.l
But a future 64bit compiler may be different so...
*scratches head* might be best to let the PB Team answer this one... I suddenly drew a blank here.

Dim *Array1(2,2,2)
Dim *Array2(2,2,2)
*Array2() = *Array1()

I dont need this, I can use CopyMemory().

Yes it's the reason why i'm asking for something to give the size of a pointer
Code: Select all
Dim *Array1(2,2,2)
Dim *Array2(2,2,2)
*Array2() = *Array1()
This code dont work.
I just suggest to add structure pointer in residents, nothing else
