Replace Array element by variant

[JICR]

Hello,

I'm building an application where I need to be able to replace an array element by variant like in this example. To my surprise this doesn't work, when you bring back the variant to the property node it returns error 91.

The reason I have to work like this is because it's not possible to have a reference to a specific element within an array, with clusters it's possible to have the reference of an element but not if that cluster is part of an array.

Is it possible to do something like that?

Cheers,

Jimmy

It fails when you try to convert back to a variant from a variant array or from a variant array to a cluster. OpenG can help with that. I don't know if you have tat toolkit, but here's a VI for you. OpenG is found on VIPM.

Why do you need to need to do this by a reference?  If you really need a reference, then a Data Value Reference to the array would be what you really want.
