Struct variable doesn't change

Hi, where's the error?

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. {
3.      struct rollTreshold
4.     {
5.         public string defenceName;
6.         public float treshold;
7.  
8.         public rollTreshold(string defenceName, float treshold) : this()
9.         {
10.             this.defenceName = defenceName;
11.             this.treshold = treshold;
12.         }
13.  
14.         public void SetTreshold(float amount)
15.         {
16.             treshold = amount;
17.         }
18.     }
19.  
20.      rollTreshold[] rollTresholds = new rollTreshold[1];
21.  
22.      void Modify()
23.      {
24.              rollTresholds[0].SetTreshold(rollTresholds[0].treshold + 0.5) //output is rolltresholds[0] not modified
25.      }
26. }
27.  

 

Code (CSharp):

1. rollTresholds[0].treshold += 0.5f;

 

do you use array in actual code too?
notice that array works a litle bit different that most of other collection types.
Arrays return elements by reference. Most other collections return elements by value.

 

yes, i am using an array. So how can i avoid that?

 

This doesn't work because "rollTresholds[0].treshold is not a variable"

 

what is it then

why do you think this will work then?

Code (CSharp):

1. treshold = amount;

 

Structs are value types and not reference types. To change them you need to make a copy and make the change on the copy, then overwrite the entire original with the copy. Alternatively just change the struct into a class.

 

Thanks
