Hello there,

I'm trying to construct the name of an array out of several Strings using str_cat . And then use the resulting string (the name of the array) to modify the array's values.

For Example:
Code:
var probe_1[4] = { 1, 1, 1, 1};
var probe_2[4] = { 2, 2, 2, 2};
var probe_3[4] = { 3, 3, 3, 3};

var test[4] = { 0, 0, 0, 0};

STRING* first_half = "probe_";
STRING* number;
STRING* second_half = "[3]";


Now I use the following function
Code:
function main()
{
	str_cpy(number, "1");
	str_cat(first_half, number);      // "probe_" + "1"
	str_cat(first_half, second_half); // "probe_1" + "[3]"
	test[3] = first_half;
}


But... it doesn't work. When I check for the value of test[3] it gives me a really huge number (90688).
The problem appears to be in the last line. It appears that the string "first_half" is not recognized as an array.

I'm stuck here and even after checking the manual I don't know how to work around this. What did I miss?
Any help is appreciated. smile
