I want to assign a copy of a boost::multi_array. How can I do this. The object where I want to assign it to has been initialized with the default constructors.
This code does not work, because the dimensions and size are not the same
class Field {
boost::multi_array<char, 2> m_f;
void set_f(boost::multi_array<short, 2> &f) {
m_f = f;
}
}
What to use instead of m_f = f
?
You should resize m_f
before assigning. It could look like in the following sample:
void set_f(boost::multi_array<short, 2> &f) {
std::vector<size_t> ex;
const size_t* shape = f.shape();
ex.assign( shape, shape+f.num_dimensions() );
m_f.resize( ex );
m_f = f;
}
May be there is a better way. Conversion short
to char
will be implicit. You should consider using std::transform
if you want explicit conversion.
