Returning array from plugin

I can not figure out how to return an array of strings from my plugin.

Is possible?

If so: Any clue is appreciated.

of you can. Return a REALarray and use REALCreateArray() to create one. For arrays you can use the insert function in the SDK to fill it.

When I do this:

REALproperty DansClassProperties[] = {
{ “”, “Files()”, “String”, REALconsoleSafe, REALstandardGetter, REALstandardSetter, FieldOffset( DansClassData, mFiles ) },
}

I get an error when RB/Xojo tries to run the plugin: It does not seems to like Files()

I don’t use arrays as properties in my plugin. Probably because that does not work.
Better make a method returning array.

Thanks,

You just saved me a lot time.

What happens if you define the property name as “Files” and type as “String()” ?

Welcome back Mars.

No success (I do not need to return the array as a property.)
