Whats wrong here ?

[basil99]

Have this code in Process_Globals:

Dim MenuItems As Int: MenuItems = 5
Dim MenuImages( ) As String
Dim MenuButtons() As BitmapData
MenuImages = Array As String( "f1.png", "f2.png", "f3.png", "f4.png", "f5.png" )


Then in Activity_Create i try to read all images in a following way:

For i = 0 To MenuItems - 1

MenuButtons( i ).Bitmap = LoadBitmap( File.DirAssets, MenuImages( i ) )

Next

Compiler reports no error, but application on my phone display the following Error dialog:

an error has occured in sub:main_activity_create (B4A Line: XXX )
MenuButtons(i).Bitmap=LoadBitmap( File.DirAssets, MenuImages(i))
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException

Continue - Yes/No


When I try with explicit value, that is 100% inside array boundaries:

Dim I As Int: I = 1
MenuButtons( I ).Bitmap = LoadBitmap( File.DirAssets, MenuImages( I ) )

I got this error message:

Programm paused at line XXX:
MenuButtons( I ).Bitmap = LoadBitmap( File.DirAssets, MenuImages( I ) )

and same for this:

MenuButtons( 2 ).Bitmap = LoadBitmap( File.DirAssets, MenuImages( 2 ) )


So, what i'm doing wrong ? All files are at place


Also I notice i'm unable ( got an error msg ) to setup array elements ia a following way:

MenuImages(0) ="f1.png".

Whats wrong here ? Just typical for all Basics languages )

Thank you

You never defined the size for this:

Dim MenuButtons() As BitmapData

You're right, I need to do the following

Dim MenuButtons( MenuItems ) As BitmapData

Thank you )
