Hello folks,
I have a function, that gets an array (owned), needs to copy it n times, add
a different member to each copy and pass that on (recursively). I have two
issues:
1) I've done it like this:
function(owned Something[] array) {
for(...) {
var copy = array;
copy += new_item;
function((owned)copy);
}
}
I would prefer if I could write that as an expression. Is there a way?
2) From the logic that 'a += b' is supposed to be a shortcut (with
optimization) for 'a = a + b', I tried:
function(owned Something[] array) {
for(...) {
function(array + new_item);
}
}
This:
- Was silently passed by vala compiler.
- Died a horrible death in the C compiler because the emited
expression involved addition of 'Something *' to 'Something', which
obviously wouldn't compile when Something is a struct.
What is a '+' on arrays supposed to do in vala?
