DumpToJaggedArray

Dumps data from a source, or from the current instance, to a jagged array.

Syntax

expression.DumpToJaggedArray(OutPutArray, [DataSource:= Nothing])

Parameters

Returns value

None

📝Note

Before dump data, is required to make a call to the ImportFromCSV or ImportFromCSVstring method. The OutPutArray parameter must be declared as dynamic Variant type array. If user forget to do this, an error can occur.

ImportFromCSV method, ImportFromCSVstring method.

Behavior

When the DataSource parameter is omitted the DumpToJaggedArray method makes a copy of all data stored in the current instance. If the user specified a data source, its data is copied and returned in the OutPutArray parameter.

📝Note

The OutPutArray argument will contain a set of Variant type arrays. To access to an individual element user must use something like expression(i)(j), where i denotes an index in the main array and j denotes an index in the child array.

☕Example

Sub DumpToJaggedArrray()
    Dim CSVint As CSVinterface
    Dim MyArray() As Variant
    
    Set CSVint = New CSVinterface
    With CSVint.parseConfig
        .path = Environ("USERPROFILE") & "\Desktop\Demo_100000records.csv"
    End With
    With CSVint
        .ImportFromCSV .parseConfig       'Import CSV data
        .DumpToJaggedArray MyArray        'Dump the data to a jagged array
    End With
    Erase MyArray
    Set CSVint = Nothing
End Sub
