Object copy function question

[Linus <olivier.cruilles@xxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

It seems that the ‘.copy()’ function available for an Array of Classes does not create a copy in a way the new copy has different pointers as reference but the same as the original Array.

So I guess use ‘.copy()’ for base type of array of objects/variables like String[], Integer[], etc, works as expected, but for an Array of Custom Classes not.

Example:

Class  CVarExpect

‘ Gambas class file

  Public Subject As String
  Public Expect As String
  Public ResponsesData as String
  Public Responses As String[]

Public Sub _new()

  Responses = New String[]

End


‘ ———————————————————

  Dim CVarExpertArray = New CVarExpect[]
  Dim NewCVarExpectArray = New CVarExpect[]

  NewCVarExpectArray = CVarExpertArray.Copy()


Can someone confirm that COPYING a custom Array of Classes doe not create a complete new Object but just create a new object that refer to the existing one ?

Thank you
