Passing array as Sub parameter from C#

[Marijan]

Hello,

I'm trying to pass string array as parameter to mbx sub.

My C# code looks something like this:

string[] subParams = { param1, param2}
mbxApp.CallMapBasicSubroutine("MySub", subParams);

Test .MB code:

Declare Sub MySub(subParams() as String)


Sub MySub(subParams() as String)

  Print "Sub launched"

End Sub

I can't figure out what I'm missing, however 'MySub' doesn't run if I pass string array as parameter. If I pass only string it executes.

Can you try using the ref keyword when parsing the array:

mbxApp.CallMapBasicSubroutine("MySub", ref subParams);

Peter, thank you for your answer.

No, 'ref' keyword doesn't work either(VS error message: 'Argument 2 may not be passed with the 'ref keyword')

Can this callmapbasicsubroutine() return a value?

No, but  the EvaluateMapBasicFunction method can
