The Array 1D String Node

The node (

) declares one or more named string arrays that you can access from form objects and methods. The number of elements in the string array is not restricted in any way, and you typically use a string array to store a column in a table. The window contains the following section.

List of Variables

This section contains a single table, where you specify one string array stored per row. Specify the name in the column, the initial values in the array in the column, and the new element value for each element in the column. The new element value specifies the value that a new element of the string array gets in certain add operations (for example, in a table). You can also add an optional description of the string array in the column.


	Although you can specify the initial values for a string array, those values may be overwritten if you use the array as a source to a form object that specifies different values.

Use the (

), (

), and (

) toolbar buttons to organize and remove choices from the list.

Code Access

In the code of a method, you access a string array named array1 as if it were a normal Java String[] variable:

String[] sa = array1;

array1 = new String[]{"element1", "element2"};
