Hello,
I am Ireneusz Szczesniak, a software developer. I am writing a module
for OpenDX. The module requires an array of floating point numbers as
one of its inputs. The trick is that the user does not have to give
the values for all the entries. For example, the user might want to
give {NULL, 3.14, NULL, 1.2e-10} meaning that there is no value for
the first and third entries.
Choosing "scalar list" as the type for such an input is not right
because we will not be able to pass the NULL values in the
Configuration window of the module. I tried "object list", and hoped
this would solve the issue. Unfortunately OpenDX complains about this
type.
Is there a way of solving the problem?
In the module at the moment the type of the array is "string list", and
the argument looks like this: {"", "3.14", "", "1.2e-10"}.
Thank you for advice and help.
