digitalmars.D - dynamic multidimensional arrays

Hello.  I just started to learn the language.
Now, I am trying to use a dynamic two-dimensional array.  The compiler accepted
the following line without a problem:

picture.length = (width), (height);

However, running the binary resulst in Win32 exception error.
I have read the manual and the forum for an hour or so, but found no answer.

You can use a simple foreach-loop:

int[][] table

table.length = height;
foreach(int[] row; table) row.length = width;

Thank you, it works now.

...
Do you expect people to thank for advice or do you consider it to be unnecessary
and redundant messages on the board?

Ald,

My thoughts are, "If the question you asked was important enough to post for
others to read, and then someone took the time to reply back to you with some
very helpful information...wouldn't posting a thanks be the right thing to do?" 

And as far as I know, this forum doesn't have a rule to whether it's necessary
or not to post a thanks, it's lefted up to each person to decide. But just
because we're on the web, it doesn't mean we can forget our manners. Afterall,
this is an International Community, plus "these posts may be the only way other
people can discover who you are...so be mindful." :)

It's good practice to respond with a thanks or otherwise because it 
let's the other person know that their suggestion was useful in solving 
your problem.

Feedback is almost always a good idea.

Not a big deal, but you probably want to know that there is `D.learn' list  
where probably-simple-to-answer questions should be send.

Strange, it doesn't work for me (DMD 0.129, Win XP).














throws ArrayBoundsError.

What works for me is:













Kind regards,

In this statement you do following:
"assign to picture's length result of comma expression".
result of comma expression is result of rightmost expression among 
expressions separated by comma. So in other words you wrote equivalent to:
picture.length = height;

Exception is consequence of value of `height`, I think it was negative. 
For me following snipet compiles and runs as expected:

module core;

void main()
{
	uint width = 5;
	uint height = 15;
	int[][] a;
	a.length = (width), (height);
}
