Declaring structure arrays

Is there a way of declaring an array of a structure where the
structure has a constructor? So if I had a structure say

Friend MyStructure
prop1 as integer
prop2 as string
sub New (p1 as integer, p2 as string)
me.prop1=p1
me.prop2=p2
End Sub
End Structure

' If I was declaring a single variable I could say:
Dim MyVar as MyStructure(100 , text)

' But I can't think how to do this if I wanted:
dim MyVar(50) as MyStructure...

Is this possible/impossible?

Thanks

Hi,

It is impossible.
But you can do Dim MyVar(50) as MyStructure and then loop thru array and
then set MyVar(index) = new MyStructure(100 , text)

I have read several interesting posts on passing structures to C dlls, but none seem to cover the following case. The structure (as seen in C) is as follows: typedef struct tag_scanparm { short cmd; short fdc; WORD dsf; short boxcar; short average; short chan_ena;

When I declare an array as double(,) then try to use it I get an error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." I have found that I can redim the array and all is well. Is my approach proper here or is the a better way for setting the instance of this specific format for an array. -- mark

I am having trouble figuring out how to declare a pointer to an array of structures and initializing the pointer with a value. I've looked at older posts in this group, and tried a solution that looked sensible, but it didn't work right.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
