Writing back an array

runxel · ‎2020-08-26

I'm working on a GDL add-on (you know, the thing you call with "open("NAME", "", ...)").
What I want to achieve is to yield an array, in the best case a two-dimensional one, back to GDL.

I know I have to write inside the `InputFromDataFile` function to the GDLRequestResult param.
So far, so good. But how to construct the array?
And how to declare the variable in GDL beforehand? Mind you: The user doesn't know how big the array is!

Regarding your code example:
When I replace GDLRequestResult with GS::Array<GdlValueRecord> the compiling will give me linking errors (LNK2001) in the GDLDev.lib – but not declaring the return value an array isn't what I am after, either. Obviously. :/

Any thoughts on that?
