Dimension - new Array()

Creates an array of variables.

VFP code example

DIMENSION myArray(2)
myArray(1) = "a"
myArray(2) = "b"

DIMENSION myArray(2,3)
myArray(1,1) = "a"
myArray(1,2) = .T.
myArray(1,3) = "c"
myArray(2,1) = 18
myArray(2,2) = "hello"
myArray(2,3) = DATE()

DIMENSION MyArray[5]
FOR x = 1 TO 5
   MyArray[x] = CREATEOBJECT("CommandButton")
ENDFOR

WATCH OUT! Arrays are zero-based in Servoy! See the samples.

var myArray = new Array();

var myArray = ['a', 'b'];

var myArray = new Array(2);
myArray[0] = 'a'; //normal braces () don't work!
myArray[1] = 'b'; //elements are zero-based

var myArray = new Array('a', 'b');

Sorry, no can do (or I didn't find out how)

var myCustomer = new Array();
myCustomer['firstname'] = "John";
myCustomer['lastname'] = "Smith";

I can live with these changes. Pitty: no multi-dimensional arrays. Cool: named array elements.
