hmRep_SET ARRAY ( Area ; varname ; array)

Introduced in v3.0, Preemptive: yes

Parameter	Type	In/Out	Description
Area	Longint	→	hmReports area
Varname	Text	→	variable name
Array	Array	→	array

Description

The command hmRep_SET ARRAY adds an array and a it’s value to the hmReports-Area. The array is available in all currently open reports and all future reports. The variable stack is only temporary and will not be saved into a report. Pass the array name into the parameter varname. The name of the variable is not case sensitive. So myvariable is the same as MyVariable. Like in 4D.

The following types of arrays are currently supported:

• ARRAY TEXT
• ARRAY DATE
• ARRAY BOOLEAN
• ARRAY REAL
• ARRAY LONGINT
• ARRAY INTEGER

If an array with the same name exists, it will be replaced.

Example

The following example defines different types of local arrays in 4D and passes them to hmReports:

var $i : Integer

ARRAY TEXT($tt_1; 100)
ARRAY REAL($tz_1; 100)
ARRAY INTEGER($tg_1; 100)
ARRAY LONGINT($tl_1; 100)
ARRAY DATE($td_1; 100)
ARRAY BOOLEAN($tf_1; 100)

For ($i; 1; Size of array($tt_1))
	$tt_1{$i}:="my testtext "+String($i)
	$tz_1{$i}:=$i+0.5
	$tg_1{$i}:=$i
	$tl_1{$i}:=$i
	$td_1{$i}:=Current date+$i
	$tf_1{$i}:=($i%2)=0
End for 

hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_text"; $tt_1)
hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_real"; $tz_1)
hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_integer"; $tg_1)
hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_longinteger"; $tl_1)
hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_date"; $td_1)
hmRep_SET ARRAY($vl_area; "myArray_bool"; $tf_1)
