How to build an (list)array of types

[G.Esmeijer]

Friends

Coming from vb I was used to do the following

private type AnyType
A as STRING
B as INTEGER
end Type

DIM anyArray() as AnyType

after giving the array a dimension like REDIM anyArray(1 to 10)
I was able to access any element as follows:

anyArray.A(1) = "MERCEDES"
anyArray.B(1) = "123"
anyArray.A(2) = "BMW"
anyArray.B(2) = "234"
etc

How can I achieve something like this in C#???
please help

struct AnyType {
public string A;
public int B;
}

AnyType[] anyArray = new AnyType[10];

anyArray.A[0] = "MERCEDES";
anyArray.B[0] = 123;
anyArray.A[1] = "BMW";
anyArray.B[1] = 234;

I think this would work, however I haven't test it out yet.
If it doesn't work let me know

hope this help,

> anyArray.A[0] = "MERCEDES";

anyArray.B[0] = 123;
anyArray.A[1] = "BMW";
anyArray.B[1] = 234;
that supposes to look like the following

anyArray[0].A = "MERCEDES";
anyArray[0].B = 123;
anyArray[1].A = "BMW";
anyArray[1].B = 234;

copy and paste devil :-)

It's "anyArray" that is an array, not the A and B members of the type.
Thus to use it:

anyArray[0].A = "MERCEDES";
anyArray[0].B = 123;

etc.

I don't think VB allowed that syntax he showed either, I think the same
change as I showed here would have to be done to his code, but I'm not
100% sure.

There isn't a "redim" or such in C#, but you can create an of items like
this:

struct AnyType
{
public string A;
public int B;
}

AnyType[] anyArray = new AnyType[10];
anyArray[0].A = "Test";

P.S. I believe this is even easier... :)
