Is possible?

In DarkBasic Classic it was possible, make array in element of type list.
I had made a codesnippet that view type sub element in code snippet area.

I'm interressing to know if is possible in DBPro
or if is not knowed how to do it,
or if is not possible.

Esempio:

Be nice - they're both right.

The arrays-in-types for DBC were an addition to the Darkedit IDE, which would run the code through a preprocessor and convert all the types into individual variables, typed arrays into individual arrays etc.

There is no preprocessor for DBPro, so although you can do the equivalent, it's time consuming and prone to error... although IIRC, the DBC/Darkedit preprocessor was prone to error too.

I wrote a tutorial about types, it's in the Tutorials Thread at the top of this page. It has some tips about how you can work around this problem.

Thank you.

I had choosed to replace all arrays-in-Type into variables converted in array in 2 and 3 dimensions, because it's only one simple solution.

Condition Necessary For made it:
1) Xdarkedit.exe rename Darkedit.exe
2) Menu\Edit\Edit Option... for open option dialog
3) check on
[*True/False] Type extended syntax
[*True/False] Define exetended syntax
[*True/False] Global extended syntax
[Ok]
4) Execute + click on button [Replace Source]
5) Reload source on the DbPro and execute.

Now my Type is became arrays to 2 and 3 dimension.
I had save a my old projet , but I hope that in the future to come in DbPro there is the possible to use array-in-Type because is more simple for me.

Again, Thank you.
