VEX array of structs

[demian]

Hello,

I'm a newbie with vex and I'm trying to create an array of structs. In my wrangle node I defined the struct in the outer code section as suggested here

my struct looks like this:

struct node {

    int pt;

    int nbrs[ ];

}

 

In my code I later declare

node nd;

node array[ ];

I manage to initialise the nd variable normally. Then I tried the following

1. int pt = nd.pt; //works fine
2. int nbrs[] = nd.nbrs; //works fine
3.  
4. array[0] = nd; //seems to work fine
5. pt = array[0].pt; //nope
6. nd = array[0]; //nope

 

By doesn't work I mean that the node turns red saying the following

Thank you Marta

I guess the reason is nbrs member is an array type. Submit your scene as a bug.

Thank you I will do it. It's a shame that it's not working though

This was frustrating but found the issue. Posting it here since it looks like the vex compiler bug hasnt been fixed:

looks like a vex compiler bug

traced it down to you have to make your custom structs be defined before the first call to len() although it probably holds for any array functions

so ended up having to move all base custom structs into a base header file with no references to any array functions
