	exists	Indicates whether a particular array element is valid.
	getTimeOutTimerHandle	Returns the timer handle for the object. (Inherited from Object.)
	handle	Retrieves the handle of the class of the object. (Inherited from Object.)
	lastIndex	Retrieves the highest index that is used to store a value in the array.
	new	Creates an array where each element has the type that is specified by the argument. (Overrides the new Method.)
	notify	Releases the hold on an object that has called the wait method on this object. (Inherited from Object.)

Remarks

Objects of this the Array class may be transferred to functions and methods.

The Array class can hold objects and records, unlike the array data type that is built into the X++ language.

Arrays of the Array class can expand as needed so that no specific dimension of the array must be supplied.

Examples

The following example creates an array of classes and adds three query objects to the array.

X++

{ 
    Array oarray = new Array (Types::Class); 
 
    oarray.value(1, new query()); 
    oarray.value(2, new query()); 
    oarray.value(4, new query());  
    print oarray.toString(); 
    print oarray.definitionString(); 
    pause; 
}
