Array.resize

[C NewBe]

Note: This method is new in the .NET Framework version 2.0. and I am using .NET Framework version 2.0.50727. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/1ffy6686(VS.80).aspx Array.Resize(ref m_yData, m_points); I get this compile error message "'System.Array' does not contain a definition for 'Resize'".....What am I missing or doing wrong? Thanks

It's a Generic method so you need a type initializer. The example code in the documentation appears to be wrong also.

int[] ints = { 1, 2, 3 };
Array.Resize<int>(ref ints, 5);

Use a collection instead of an arraylist. Then you don't have to resize manually.

You don't need to specify the generic type for a generic method call - you can do this, but in most cases the compiler is smart enough to figure it out. Explicitly specifying the generic type in a method call is only necessary in ambiguous cases where the compiler can't compute the type. e.g., Array.Resize(ref ints, 5); will work just fine.

Sweet. Missed that one and it makes a huge difference. :beer:
