Is there a way to do this?

#1 Post by LGR » 17 May 2012 22:58

I'd like to have an array of constant strings, something like:

Code: Select all

const mess : array [11] of string [16] = ('ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP'
'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP');
Compiler doesn't like this. Is it possible to have complex constants like this?

Just add commas between strings (array elements) and it'll be accepted :) .

I realized that about 5 seconds before the email notification of your comment arrived. :shock: :evil: :mrgreen:

I thought you eventually would :) . It still seemed worthwhile to point it out as (at least from my experience :wink: ) it's so easy to miss the obvious.

Don't feel bad I have asked at least 2-3 times here and in the Delphi group how to defined constant arrays.... I don't know why the syntax seems to be a mental block for me.
