    12 <concept id="GUID-1A94AA49-3954-581B-92EE-C9BDA253508F" xml:lang="en"><title>How

    13 to create a generic array</title><shortdesc>Arrays can be created using a templated class. This allows a degree

    14 of polymorphism to be used without needing to know the data type in the array.</shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

    15 <p>Arrays can be accessed in a limited way using a <codeph>TArray&lt;class T&gt;</codeph> object.

    16 This is a templated class which can be constructed by any of the templated

    17 array classes: <codeph>CArrayFixFlat&lt;class T&gt;</codeph>, <codeph>CArrayFixSeg&lt;class T&gt;</codeph>, <codeph>CArrayVarFlat&lt;class T&gt;</codeph>, <codeph>CArrayVarSeg&lt;class T&gt;</codeph> and <codeph>CArrayPakFlat&lt;class T&gt;</codeph>.</p>

    18 <p>It allows a degree of polymorphism amongst the array classes. It permits

    19 the <codeph>operator[]</codeph> and the <codeph>Count()</codeph> member functions

    20 of an array to be invoked without knowing the type of that array.</p>
