Convert C array to Juce Array

[jimc]

Ah, yes, you can sort of do that. It’s got a couple of issues you, it won’t write to XML properly:

Store ValueTree Array<var> in JSON/XML problem

Yes, anyway it would be great to have the possibility (however) to store a ValueTree with all its possibilities into a MemoryBlock/String. In times, where on modern OS, a application should store its current state immediately on disk, this would be cool! If i use arrays then Xml Conversion wouldn’t work. If i use JSON then ValueTree Conversion would’t work. If i use dynamic Objects “writeToStream()” wouldn’t work. If i use strings instead of dynamic Objects, its just a waste of memory/cpu…

Unless you really want it in an Array I’d be tempted to go with something like this:

for (auto i: originalArray)
{
  ValueTree node{"n"};
  n.setProperty("value", i, nullptr);
  tree.addChild(node, -1, nullptr);
}

or similar which then gives you the option of writing to XML still. There may be reasons why Array would be better … someone else may have a view.
