Description[edit | edit source]

Use WRITE DYNAMIC to send the contents of a dynamic array to a disk file. Data written to a file in this manner can be read back into memory using READ DYNAMIC. Before dynamic arrays are written to the disk, they are automatically compressed.

Example[edit | edit source]

DIM x
DYNAMIC myAry(_maxLong)

FOR x = 1 TO 100
myAry(x) = x
NEXT

OPEN "O",#1,"Dynamic Array Test"
WRITE DYNAMIC #1,myAry
CLOSE #1

KILL DYNAMIC myary

OPEN "I",#1,"Dynamic Array Test"
READ DYNAMIC #1,myAry
CLOSE #1

FOR x = 1 TO 10
PRINT myary(x)
NEXT

KILL "Dynamic Array Test"
