PA_GetArrayCurrent

version 2003

PA_GetArrayCurrent (array) → long

The routine PA_GetArrayCurrent returns the current element in the array array .

If the parameter PA_Variable array is not an array, the routine returns -1.

An array can hold up to 2 billions elements, but the Macintosh user interface can only display the 32767 first elements of an array in a list, as such the current element is also limited to 32767 (it is internally stored in a short).

Get the value of the current element of a longint array.

   long GetCurrentLongIntArrayValue( PA_Variable liArray )
   {
      long   current;
      long   value = -1;
      
      if ( PA_GetVariableKind( liArray ) == eVK_ArrayLongint )
      {
         current = PA_GetArrayCurrent( liArray );
         value = PA_GetLongintInArray( liArray, current );
      }
      return value;
   }
