Android Question Array of Bitmaps is not working

[Martin Domian]

I wanted to create an array of images because they'll be needed in a later loading routine and will be loaded using an index corresponding to the number in the array.

But it keeps crashing when INIT the bitmap.
BM(i).Initialize(File.DirAssets, Filename)

If I use Dim BM1 as ... BM2 as ... it works, but that's nonsense.
Does anyone know what's wrong here?

    Dim BM(1 To 11) As Bitmap
    Dim Filename As String
    For i = 1 To 11     
        Filename = "CL" & NumberFormat(i, 2, 0) & ".png"
        If File.Exists(File.DirAssets, Filename) Then
          BM(i).Initialize(File.DirAssets, Filename)
        Else
            Log ("Mist")
        End If       
    Next

Error:
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: length=1; index=1

The syntax of your dim statement is incorrect. It should be

Dim BM(10) As Bitmap

. The array index is zero based, so your loop should be

For I = 0 to BM.Length -1

@stevel05
But it should be

Dim BM(11) As Bitmap

If not it will count 0 to 9.

 

[stevel05]

count

Just an example, dimension it as needed.

Oh ... no!

Dim BM(11) As Bitmap

That's it...

Thanks

It is better to use List or Map.
