Hi All,
I've been hacking at a project for a couple weeks now, and am getting some
rather confusing array-related errors when trying to compile.
I've seen these before, but they usually only occur when trying to use objects
with nondefault constructors in arrays in some fashion.
In this case, its a method declaration line that seems to be breaking:
item[] lookup(string keyword)
The error is:
File: array
On line: 0 (0)
Error: The subtype has no default factory
File:
On line: 20 (1)
Information: Compiling <unknown> database::lookup(string)
The item class is fully valid and included in the script.
The lookup function is as follows:
item[] lookup(string keyword)
//This function returns a list of items that can be referenced by a given
keyword.
{
item[] results;//Note that this line doesn't break, just the function
declaration
for(int count=0; count<contents.length(); count++)//loop through database
contents, checking each item
{
if(contents[count].check(keyword)) results.insert_last(contents[count]);
}
return results;
}
If anybody has a clue what's going on here, I'd really appreciate some help.
Also, if you know how to use objects that have constructors with arguments in
arrays, I'd love to know too; that particular issue has been costing me a
tremendous amount of debugging and fixing time.
Thanks,
John
