Problem with List and Array?
I changed my code a bit... (2nd edited)
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class Stats : MonoBehaviour {
public static Stats Instance;
public List<ItemList> Inventory;
public string[] ItemNames;
public int[] ItemCounts;
void Awake () {
Instance = this;
Inventory = new List<ItemList>[ItemNames.Length];
for(int i = 0; i < ItemNames.Length + 1;i++)
{
Inventory[i].Name = ItemNames[i];
Inventory[i].Count = ItemCounts[i];
}
}
This is what my ItemList looks like !
using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
public struct ItemList
{
public string ItemName;
public int ItemCount;
}
The error is
Stats.cs(16,9): error CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type `System.Collections.Generic.List<ItemList>[]' to `System.Collections.Generic.List<ItemList>'
Stats.cs(20,23): error CS1061: Type `ItemList' does not contain a definition for `Name' and no extension method `Name' of type `ItemList' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
Stats.cs(21,23): error CS1061: Type `ItemList' does not contain a definition for `Count' and no extension method `Count' of type `ItemList' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
How Can I use List with Array?
Same type?
string = string
int = int
Any Ideas??
I try to do a little Inventory with stackable items :(
There is nothing wrong with your code, or using arrays with lists. You are using your list without initializing it (as far as I can see from your code) you should do public List &ItemList& Inventory = new List &ItemList&(); (I can't use less/bigger than signs in comment)
vexe, you forgot the spaces after your angle brackets. He means public List Inventory = new List();
Sorry I forgot to add errors :P hahaha Please help I update more information :)
The second and third errors are easy to fix, you are using "Count" and "Name", but yet you have them as "ItemName" and "ItemCount" in your struct.
You can't directly access the mehods of a list entry when using a struct type... create a temp variable and add that one to your list.
...
Inventory = new List<ItemList>();
tempItemList = ItemList();
for(int i = 0; i < ItemNames.Length;i++)
{
tempItemList.ItemName = ItemNames[i];
tempItemList.ItemCount = ItemCounts[i];
Inventory.Add(tempItemList);
}
}
Try :
Inventory = new List<ItemList>(ItemNames.Length);
for(int i = 0; i < ItemNames.Length + 1;i++)
{
Inventory[i].ItemName = ItemNames[i];
Inventory[i].ItemCount = ItemCounts[i];
}
}
I tried this and it solve the first error :)
then the new one comes :(
Stats.cs(20,10): error CS1612: Cannot modify a value type return value of System.Collections.Generic.List.this[int]'. Consider storing the value in a temporary variable Stats.cs(21,10): error CS1612: Cannot modify a value type return value of System.Collections.Generic.List.this[int]'. Consider storing the value in a temporary variable
I would do this: Inventory = new List(); for(int i = 0; i < ItemNames.Length + 1;i++) { Inventory.Add(new ItemList(ItemNames[i], ItemCounts[i]); }
$$anonymous$$ake a constructor for your ItemList that accepts a string and an int.

Ah of course ... vexe told you a good correction for this now, and Joyrider gave you an example of implementation.
