Re: [Boost-users] define multi dimension array at run time

Hi Moataz,

So the array is defined as a class member but is first initialized through the constructor, but according to boost example page its something like: typedef boost::multi_array<double, 3> array_type;

but I'd like: typedef boost::multi_array<std::vector<MyObject>, n> array_type; where n is given through the constructor

Is this somehow possible?

You can't change the dimensionality of a multi_array at runtime. You could write templated logic for N dimensional instances, instantiate up to some maximum (say 42), and then manage those with some common facade. This won't be pretty... - Rhys
