Neko array indexing

[Edu García]

Can someone explain me why this fails with an "Invalid array access" on Neko? It works correctly on CPP:

var idx:Int = cast(1.5);
trace(array[idx]);

If I understood that correctly, it should truncate 1.5 to 1 and store it as an Int on idx, and that should be a valid array index value, right?

Thanks!

The assumption is wrong. You are using an unsafe cast, that means "I know that the value on the right is of the correct format so don't bother checking it". A typed cast cast(1.5, Int) would on the pther hand, throw an exception. What you are looking for is Sta.int(1.5).

That makes more sense, thanks!
