I've got a bit of a problem:

In Gambas, I'm trying to define an array in a separate class called "global" (it's an array that needs global availability). For all the documentation I've read, I should declare it like so:

The moment a subroutine from any other class thinks of assigning an array element a value, I get a "Null Object" error.

I should be able to assign an element a value by doing the following (assuming I'm doing the assignment outside of the class array_x is defined in):
Any suggestions?

Do I need to assign any values in the class in which "array_x" is defined?

I suspect that your array has not been allocated any elements, hence the problem when you try and add. However I don't use Gambas so this is only a guess. But I would suggest that you look the features available to add elements.

thanks for your reply graemef. I've literally read everything in the documentation on arrays and element assignment, and according to the documentation, I'm not doing anything wrong.

I think I might try to assign the element values within the class the array is defined in.
