Limit array dimension

On the front panel is an array of dbl. I want to only allow the user to select four (0-3) using the index display. How can I limit the index display?

You can hide the index display, then make a seperate control where you can set entry limits. Use a value change event on it to set the "index values" property to scroll the array. Make the upper limit of the control dependent on the size of the array and the number of elements visible.
For example, if the array is size=4 and the display is size=3, only allow 0..1 on the control using data entry limits.
You could even wrap the entire thing into an xcontrol. The advantage of an xcontrol is the fact that is also work in edit mode.

  • Array Dimension Too Big Error

    Hi,
    For the following declaration I am getting "Array Dimension Too Big" error with Forte C Compiler on Solairs 8.
    double try[23200][23000];
    What is the mx dimension possible? and Where do I find such info on boundary conditions??
    Regards,
    Gurudatta

    Hi There,
    The legal limit of the array is whatever the hardwareand swap space will support.
    You are asking for 8*23000*20000 bytes /1024/1024 = 3509.52 megabytes = 3.43 gigabytes.
    You are declaring this much allocation locally via
    automatic array in your example. You'll have to define a stack this size (hardly practical).
    If you ask for this much memory with malloc() which is a much better idea, you'll still need to have enough swap.
    You can also do mmap(...,MAP_NORESERVE,...) in which case you may not even need the swap to support it.
    It all depends on what you are doing and why.

  • HELP: Run-time array dimension in LabVIEW formula node

    I need to dimension an array at run time within a formula node as follows:
    int32 i,N;
    N = sizeOfDim(inputArray,0);
    float64 outputArray[N];
    for (i = 0; i outputArray[i] = myfunction(inputArray[i]);
    However, LabVIEW complains "Formula Node: index list expected". On the
    other hand, if I say
    float64 outputArray[1000];
    LabVIEW is perfectly happy. But that's not what I need to do! Is there
    an alternative
    way of accomplishing my goal?
    BTW, I've tried calculating N outside the formula node and then
    presenting it as
    an input with the same results. I've got a bad feeling that run time
    array dimensioning
    just isn't allowed.
    TIA,
    Hugh

    Can't you just use the Initialize Array function outside the formula node and pass that instead?

  • Array dimensions when converting from a cluster

    Hello,
    I am a beginner Labview programmer. Right now I am working on a VI
    that converts a portion of cluster data to an array of tables. The
    cluster is loop tunneled into a for loop then unbundled. I then build
    it into a 2D array. When I hand the data back out of the for loop the
    array dimensions are the same size. i.e. If the 2D arrays were 2x7 and
    2x6 going in then going out I have both as 2x7's. This happens right
    at the exiting loop tunnel (I suppose when it initializes the 3D
    array). This places zeros in the last row of my 2x6 array. Can anyone
    suggest a fix. Thanks a bunch.
    Peter.

    Hi, Peter:
    I think you want to have an array of different row sizes. I think it's impossible in LabView. At least using only arrays and without clusters.
    And as all rows have the same number of elements, undefined elements get default value. In case of numerics, zeros.
    You could create an array of cluster elements, and each element be an array 2D. Then each element can be an array of different sizes.
    But that's just what you had at start.

  • Array Dimensions

    In my code, i have two arrays. one for storing names and another to store a set of grades. The problem im having is defining the array dimensions.
    The info is read in from a txt file so do i have to count the number of lines in the file in order to set the dimensions?

    Use HashMap with [name(key) : grade(value)] pairs.
    You don't need the total number of them beforehand.
    Raw arrays should not be used as application's first
    class data in a serious
    Java project. Use java.util.Collection/Map family of
    data structures instead.While I would tend to agree with the above suggestion, here's another idea for you:
    if you use an ArrayList, you don't have to set the dimesion before hand. And if you're bent on using an array (as opposed to an ArrayList), there is a method of the List interface that returns an array (it's called toArray). So you could add everything to a LinkedList (faster than adding to an ArrayList), and get the contents back as an array.
    But again, I recommend the HashMap approach.

  • Simple Array Dimensioning question

    Hey all,
    What is the easiest way to dynamically set the array dimension of an array? I have a method that returns an object array of type Project. The array size of the returned object varries depending on what parameters are passed. I do not know how to declare the object that calls the method. Can you help me? Thanks.
    DetailedProject[] test = new DetailedProject[5];
    test = myBudgetDAO.getProjects("2006","O&M","25","109","98");

    Would I still be able to call the same method with different parameters? Yes. All you say is that the method is returning an array.
    The size of the array matters not to your main program, just that the method returns an array of the appropriate objects.
    Something in your getProjects method you must be declaring/creating an array. Look at that code.
    The getProjects method must know how many to create if it is returning the correctly sized array.
    An alternative is instead of using an array, to use a List (eg ArrayList) which dynamically resizes itself, and you don't need to set inital capacity.

  • Limit array selection

    I am wondering if there is any way to limit an array control so that the user can only put information into a certain number of spots. What I mean is: I have an array of clusters that ask for certain configuration controls from the user. However there can only be 8 different configurations per array. I can't find a way to keep the user from editing more entries than 8. (This is purely for ease of use, as it is the program will discard anything past the 8th entry).
    Attached is a picture of the control that I want to limit the user from selecting 9 or more entries on.

    LimitArray.png ‏13 KB

    It would be more compact if you were to use an XControl, but you don't have to use an XControl. You could, for example, hide the index display for the array, and provide your own control for selecting the element to edit. You can then use the data range properties on this control to set your limit of 8. When the user selects a specific element you can set the visible element, as mentioned in the previous reply.

  • Timed loop with array dimension control

    Hello,
    I have imported an excel to an array and im trying to use a timed loop to run the values of the array on a timed interval. One of my problems is that the array is 2D and i cant use its length to stop the loop. I want to use witch value of the array in the loop in each iteration of the loop and i want the loop o stop when the counter equals the length of the array. Can someone help me plz here is the labview.

    It is really unclear what your question is.  Could you clarify?  
    If you are struggling with why you have a broken wire it is because you are sending an array to the stop of the loop.  When you use the array size function on a 2D array it returns a 1D array with the size of each dimension.  When you then use the greater than function it returns a 1D array of Booleans.  It compares each element of the array size to the current count of the iteration terminal.  
    To use this to stop your loop you need to reduce it to a single element some way before you send it to the stop control of the loop.  You could apply an "and" or "or" function to the out put of the greater than or pull out a single index out of the single greater than array. 
    In the image logical AND, logical OR, or element could be used to stop the loop.  You just need to choose one that gives you the behavior you need.

  • Array dimension

    I am passing a two dimension array to the function in which second dimension is always same(means no of column) that is four.
    First dimension is variable that is four or five or what so ever.(means number of rows are variable).
    In the function I have to loop through the number of rows.
    So is there any array function to find the length of first dimension.
    e.g
    some time the array is arr[2][4]
    some time it is arr[8][4]
    I want to get array first dimension that is here 2 or 8.

    Length shouldn't (can't) be capitalized if you want it to work.
    What are you doing with arrcnt? Java is not C. You can't address 2-D arrays as 1-D arrays. You need an inner loop instead of your if (k%4==0).
    for(int k=0;k<arr.length;k++)
       for(int col=0;col<arr[k].length;col++) // could use 4 instead of arr[k].length
            //do whatever with:
           arr[k][col] = ...;
    }

  • Arrays dimension changed by "for loop"

    When using a two(multi)-dimension array as input to a "for loop", the connection
    changes inside the loop to a 1D array automatically. Why?!?
    I want to perform the same procedure on each subarray of the basic two-dimension
    array, by specifing an index. The second dimension I disable indexing. The
    index itself can be the for loop index. The problem is the change in connection
    between out and in of the for loop.

    The question is that you have indexing enabled in the for
    loop entry, and the for loop will convert your 2D array in
    the necessary number of 1D arrays to be completed in the
    for loop. This is good when you don't know how long the
    array is going to be, but if you don't like it, you can
    right click on the input tunnel and disable indexing.
    Hope this helps.

  • Regarding Dimensions of Array

    Hi ..well i am just wondering wht is the limit to Dimension of Array in Java. my ultimate goal is to handle large matrices.
    Looking forward for your response..thanking u ..!!

    Hmmm... that question could be interpreted in at least two ways.
    1. How many dimensions can an array type have? I believe the answer is around 255.
    2. How many levels of arrays can be stored in any array? This is limited only by available memory.
    Remember that "multidimensional arrays" are really just arrays of arrays, and that arrays are objects. Thus, you could have an array of objects whose elements are actually arrays:
    Object[] deep = new Object[10];
    deep[0] = new Object[10];
    ((Object[]) deep[0])[0] = new Object[10];
    ((Object[]) ((Object[]) deep[0])[0])[0] = new Object[10];
    // etc.Actually, an element of an array can be a reference to the array itself:
    Object[] recursive = new Object[1];
    recursive[0] = recursive;so in a sense that is a "bottomless" array!
    If you're willing to code the array accesses with lots of casts, you can handle any number of dimensions, and even arrays of "ragged" dimension.

  • MaxL / INCBUILDDIM - two dimension limit

    I'm trying to build multiple dimensions in a single MaxL 'import database dimensions' command by including multiple 'from xx using rules_file xx' blocks separated by commas. This syntax is as per the documentation.The reason for building multiple dimensions in a single 'import database dimensions' command, rather than using multiple commands is that this achieves the same effect as the ESSCMD 'INCBUILDDIM', where the database is only restructured after ALL the dimensions have been built.MaxL doesn't error, but it only builds the first two dimensions specified and simply ignores any others! Has anyone seen this issue - I'm wondering if it's a MaxL bug (v6.5.1). I've tried different dimensions, changing the order etc. Always the same - builds the first two, ignores anything else.Thanks..

    Assuming that your AW was defined using AWM or OWB (i.e. it is standard form), then you should find two additional objects related to your dimension -- the INHIER valueset and the HIERLIST dimension. For example, if your dimension is named PRODUCT, then you should find
    DEFINE PRODUCT_HIERLIST DIMENSION READONLY LOCKDFN TEXT
    DEFINE PRODUCT_INHIER VALUESET READONLY LOCKDFN PRODUCT <PRODUCT_HIERLIST>
    (These are 11g definitions -- the 10g versions do not have READONLY LOCKDFN.
    The PRODUCT_HIERLIST contains one member for each hierarchy of the dimension, 'H1' and 'H2' say. To limit the dimension to just members in H2 you can say
    LIMIT PRODUCT TO PRODUCT_INHIER(PRODUCT_HIERLIST 'H2')
