Using the FPC console IDE. When I define a typed array with limits, ie.:
type
tbarray=array[0..1023] of byte;
var
foo:tbarray;
...I can view the contents of in the watch window (like "foo[2]")
without problems. But if I define it as a dynamic array:
type
tbarray=array of byte;
var
foo:tbarray;
...
setlength(foo,1024);
...then trying to view the array ("foo[2]") in the watch window shows up
as "Cannot perform pointer math on incomplete types, try casting to a
known type, or void *". I've tried casting like byte(foo[2]) and
byte^(foo[2]) but I must be doing it wrong as those aren't working.
What is the proper way to cast dynamic arrays so that I can inspect them
in the watch window?
