Default Byte array's ".getLength" and ".Length"

Hi!

Code:
byte[] testing = new byte[100];
I am confused with these 2 methods. What will I get if I do a testing.getLength & testing.Length?

Thanks!

Erm, did you try reading the tooltip on the Intellisense when typing?

Or perhaps just be spontaneous and type the code and examine the results?

Admittedly, I have never used GetLength so I needed to look it up, it took me longer to write the first line of this post..

Try reading the documentation (RTFM!):

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...getlength.aspx

and

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...ay.length.aspx

There is a difference, but only when used on multi-dimensional arrays.

p.s. Nice link Joe :)
