thanks for the hint, Erel.
I remember that we discussed this on the chat 2.5 years ago and we couldn't get it to work like that.
So I kept using that 2 step method.
It must've been that 2nd byte definition that we didn't use and used
What's the reason to define the byte (and array) twice?

B4X:
Dim b() As Byte = (1, 2, 3, 4, 0xff, 0xab)What's the reason to define the byte (and array) twice?

but in a lot of languages () already means it's an array.
I, and probably others aswell, read that line as "b as array of bytes=array as byte(1,2..)"
so it's declared twice.
b is declared to expect bytes so the "array as byte" is kind of overkill. (unless it opens doors for some wicked stuff)

Array As <type>(...) is not a declaration. It is a shorthand syntax to create arrays.
You can use it in any place that expects an array (or list).
List1.AddAll(Array As String("a", "b"))

For Each i As Int In Array As Int(1, 2,3)
Log(i)List1.AddAll(Array As String("a", "b"))
