getNumberArray(String) is deprecated

[Jeringo]

I am trying to get an array value from network tables in java but can't seem to get it right.
currently using this...

double[] width = Table.getNumberArray("width");

but I am getting this

The method getNumberArray(String) from the type NetworkTable is deprecated

how would I fix this?

Deprecated methods means that they are old or may no longer be supported/may be removed in a future update.

However, they should still work. I assume you aren't getting an error, but rather a warning.




As for fixing it: You'd have to use the new way of doing what you are trying to do. I don't know what it is called off the top of my head.

This new method allows you to set a default value as a second parameter to return if no value can be found. The new method is getNumberArray(String key, Double[] defaultValue).

after using

double[] defaultval = new double[0];
getNumberArray("width", defaultval );

it says defaultval is a double but it needs to be a double[]
forgive me if im missing something very obvious switched over to java 4 days ago and arrays are not my strong suit

i get a misplaced constructs on double[]

Try this:

Double[] x = {0.0};

getNumberArray("width", x);
