Array Types

Inspect supports all Pascal array types, including multidimensional arrays and arrays of

records. You can use a single element, a group of elements, an entire array, or an

array type itself as the data-reference part of a data location:

If you use the array name only in any command other than INFO IDENTIFIER or

DISPLAY, Inspect displays the error:

Inspect performs bounds checking on Pascal arrays. If you attempt to access an

element outside of the array bounds, Inspect displays the error:

Examples

This example assume these Pascal declarations:

CONST subscript = 100;

TYPE intarray = ARRAY [1..subscript] OF INTEGER;

chararray = PACKED ARRAY [1..subscript] OF CHAR;

VAR a1 : intarray;

a2 : chararray;

This example displays an array element and then displays both arrays:

-PASOBJ-DISPLAY a1[5]

A1[5] = value of fifth element

-PASOBJ-DISPLAY a1

A1 = values of all elements of a1

-PASOBJ-DISPLAY a2

A2 = values of all elements of a2 as a string of CHARs

Enumerated Types

Inspect supports variables of enumerated types.

Data Reference Example Where Valid

Single element MYARRAY[5] In any Inspect command

Range of elements MYARRAY[1:7] In any Inspect command except BREAK

Entire array MYARRAY In the INFO IDENTIFIER and DISPLAY

commands only

Array type INTARRAY In the INFO IDENTIFIER command only

** Inspect error 80 ** Required subscript missing: identifier

** Inspect error 79 ** Subscript value outside of declared bounds: identifier
