stupid array initialization

[happycpp]

hi everyone.. i'm having this stupid problem that i don't know how to solve: DWORD Size = GetFileSize(..); int Arr[Size]; the problem is that Arr doesn't accept Size to be the number of elements!!!

I don't think arrays like to be dymically allocated. I think you have to give it a constant number. Try using CStringArray instead. Hope this helps.

int *pArr = new int[Size];

Actually you should use a BYTE array. Using an int array allocated 4 times the necessary space. --Mike-- Personal stuff:: Ericahist | Homepage Shareware stuff:: 1ClickPicGrabber | RightClick-Encrypt CP stuff:: CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ ----

thanx very much..i used the allocating in the heap way since i'm not intending to use MFC (CMap)..

Not sure in C++ (yet anyways) but in VB there is a keyword to resize the array and to save the info in the array. Killer coding ninja monkeys do exsist ! There is no spoon? How the frell do I eat my frosted mini-wheats
