I got an update from Kickstarter saying "The focus now is to keep fixing any issues found by the community to ensure this build is strong and solid."

Did TGC give up on the Stretch Goal #2 of Save/Load Array?

Of course bug fixin' is great, but it's been two years and I'd really like to see that Save/Load Array.

I'll see if I can get it in the next version. It was one of those things that looked easy at first but requires a lot of time to go through all the possible cases, arrays of types, arrays of types that also contain arrays, what if you load an array that doesn't have the type declared that was used to save it, and so on.

@paul,
i think at first u must now the items of the struct/udt/type, then in the abstract its only
Write/ReadFloat
Write/ReadInteger
Write/ReadString2
+ Count Elements

Type TStructA
a as string
b as integer
c as float
d as integer[]
e as TStructB
End Type

its something like select case type of a,b,c,d,e then save/load it.
i agree its not a easy task.
