Full Discussion: Joining two arrays and then creating a variable
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Joining two arrays and then creating a variable Post 302243420 by Franklin52 on Sunday 5th of October 2008 12:53:43 PM
Old 10-05-2008
An example:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

NAME=( "John" "Mary" "Fred" )
SURNAME=( "Doe" "Poppins" "Flintstone" )

n=0

while [ $n -lt ${#NAME[@]} ] ; do
  DISPLAY_NAME[$n]=${NAME[$n]}" "${SURNAME[$n]}
  echo ${DISPLAY_NAME[$n]}
  let n=n+1
done

With a for loop:

Code:
#!/bin/bash

NAME=( "John" "Mary" "Fred" )
SURNAME=( "Doe" "Poppins" "Flintstone" )

n=${#NAME[@]}

for (( i=0; i<n; i++ )); do
  DISPLAY_NAME[$i]=${NAME[$i]}" "${SURNAME[$i]}
  echo ${DISPLAY_NAME[$i]}
done

Regards

glgenvertexarrays

GLGENVERTEXARRAYS(3G)						    OpenGL 3.3						     GLGENVERTEXARRAYS(3G)

NAME

       glGenVertexArrays - generate vertex array object names

C SPECIFICATION

       void glGenVertexArrays(GLsizei n, GLuint *arrays);

PARAMETERS

       n
	   Specifies the number of vertex array object names to generate.

       arrays
	   Specifies an array in which the generated vertex array object names are stored.

DESCRIPTION

       glGenVertexArrays returns n vertex array object names in arrays. There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers;
       however, it is guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately before the call to glGenVertexArrays.

       Vertex array object names returned by a call to glGenVertexArrays are not returned by subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with
       glDeleteVertexArrays().

       The names returned in arrays are marked as used, for the purposes of glGenVertexArrays only, but they acquire state and type only when they
       are first bound.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.

SEE ALSO

       glBindVertexArray(), glDeleteVertexArrays()
