A string that holds my array? - Shoulen - 18.04.2013

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is possible or not, but basically this is what I have:

pawn Код:

string = "{1},{2},{5},{7},{25]";

And with it I was hoping to be able to do this:

pawn Код:

new MyArray[][1] = {
string;
}

How can I go about doing this and getting that effect so to use the string as a place holder for the arrays?

All strings are arrays, but not all arrays are per definition strings. Anyway, you can't initialize a variable with another variable unless it's constant.

It is constant, as in, it doesn't change.

Is there any other way to do this?

The const isn't really what I'm looking for,
I've just done it a different way with loops.
I have another question if you don't mind,
The string that pulls these array formats are really big, 2 bytes big, and obviously I cannot create a string and declare an index of 32767, how can I pull a string is, literally 32000 characters long +- without crashing the script?

Not 100% sure what you need, but if it's constant, why use an array and not a define?

pawn Код:

#define string 1, 2, 5, 7, 25

new MyArray[] = {
string
};

If you'd tell us what you want to do, we'd likely be able to tell you a much better way of doing that.
