Hello, I want to write a complex structure to a file. I am wondering how I
should go about it. I am new to this sort of thing, and have found out just
writing the pointer doesnt work. Do i need to write out each element in the
structure to file or is there some way I can write the pointer so I can also
load it into the structure.
TObjArray = array[0..1] of Pointer;
PObjArray = ^TObjArray;
TSelType = (
stNone,
stVerts,
stFaces,
stEdges
);
TIntegerArray = array[0..1] of Integer;
PIntegerArray = ^TIntegerArray;
TSelData = record
seltype: TSelType;
case TSelType of
stVerts: (vxsIdxArray: PIntegerArray;
nbrSelVxs: integer);
stFaces: (faceIdxArray: PIntegerArray;
nbrSelFaces: integer);
stEdges: ( edgeArray: PIntegerArray;
nbrSelEdges: integer );
end;
TSelDataArray = array[0..1] of TSelData;
PSelDataArray = ^TSelDataArray;
TSPEObjs = record
nbrPEObjs: integer;
peObjs: PObjArray;
SelData: PSelDataArray;
end;
PEObjs = ^TSPEObjs;
You can see how complex this is. I'm thinking I need to write a custom file
type using writeinteger and so forth, or perhaps there is a quicker way? BTW I
just want to write the PEObjs to file, which is what i'm working with. It works
very well in my program to control user selections on geometry.
