Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you has ever ran into trouble trying to identify whether a
declared variable is a scalar or an array.
Unless I've missed something, there doesn't seem to be a method that would allow a
macro to distinguish between the two.
If that's true, perhaps a modification to dimensions() would be useful.
If dimensions() is passed a float or vector identifier, parsing fails at that point.
What if the function returned a zero if passed a float or vector instead?
I haven't examined the internal workings to see if that would be a quick thing to
implement.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mark LaBonte.

Well, usually when you script things yourself, you should know whats going
in and out of macros and scripts. Unless you need/want some way to have a
part of script do different things based upon float or array, I'm not sure
if the effort is actually worth it, I've never needed it. Where do you need
it? I'm curious. :-)
And you could always declare one-dimensional-arrays as well.
Regards,
Tim

This is the wrong group for this question. This group is for discussion of
the POV-Ray source code, not the features of POV-Ray and not for making
feature suggestions. Questions and feature requests about using POV-Ray
should be asked/made in either povray.general or povray.newusers.
