B4R Question How to pass array of double from Inline-C to B4R ?

[peacemaker]

If we have arrays:

Sub Process_Globals
    'These global variables will be declared once when the application starts.
    'Public variables can be accessed from all modules.
    Dim FreqX(20), MagX(20), RmsX As Double
    Dim FreqY(20), MagY(20), RmsY As Double
    Dim FreqZ(20), MagZ(20), RmsZ As Double
End Sub

How to fill them from Inline-C ?

struct PeakInfo {
  double frequency;
  double amplitude;
  double rms;
};
....

    for (int i = 0; i < MAX_PEAKS; i++) {
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqx->data[i] = peaksX[i].frequency;
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_magx->data[i] = peaksX[i].amplitude;
       
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqy->data[i] = peaksY[i].frequency;
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_magy->data[i] = peaksY[i].amplitude;
       
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqz->data[i] = peaksZ[i].frequency;
        b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_magz->data[i] = peaksZ[i].amplitude;
    }

This code does not allow it with error:

\b4r_espmpu6050_fft.cpp:282:47: error: 'void*' is not a pointer-to-object type
282 | b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqx->data = peaksX.frequency;

        return;
    }

    double* targetArray = (double*)b4rArrayPtr->data;
    int availableSpace = b4rArrayPtr->length - startIndex;

    // Copy with bounds check
    int elementsToCopy = (dataCount < availableSpace) ? dataCount : availableSpace;
    for (int i = 0; i < elementsToCopy; i++) {
        targetArray[startIndex + i] = sourceData[i];
    }
}

    // axle X
    double passing[MAX_PEAKS];
    for (int i = 0; i < MAX_PEAKS; i++) passing[i] = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < peakCountX; i++) passing[i] = peaksX[i].frequency;
    PassDoubleArrayToB4R(b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqx, passing, peakCountX);
    
    for (int i = 0; i < MAX_PEAKS; i++) passing[i] = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < peakCountX; i++) passing[i] = peaksX[i].amplitude;
    PassDoubleArrayToB4R(b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_magx, passing, peakCountX);

Such sub helps to pass the data, but ... it's wrongly interpreted as the doubles...

SOLVED:

/**
 * Universal sub to pass doubles array to B4R.
 *
 * @param b4rArrayPtr - B4R array pointer(ex, b4r_espmpu6050_fft::_freqx).
 * @param sourceData  - double source array (ex, peaksX[i].frequency).
 * @param dataCount   - qty to copy.
 * @param startIndex  - Start target index in B4R's array (0 by default).
