C# function to return array

Question

/// <summary>
/// Returns an array of all ArtworkData filtered by User ID
/// </summary>
/// <param name="UsersID">User ID to filter on</param>
/// <returns></returns>
public static Array[] GetDataRecords(int UsersID)
{
    ArtworkData[] Labels;
    Labels = new ArtworkData[3];

    return Labels[];
}

I get a syntax error, ; expected after return Labels[].

Am I doing this right?

Answer 1

You're trying to return variable Labels of type ArtworkData instead of array, therefore this needs to be in the method signature as its return type. You need to modify your code as such:

public static ArtworkData[] GetDataRecords(int UsersID)
{
    ArtworkData[] Labels;
    Labels = new ArtworkData[3];

    return Labels;
}

Array[] is actually an array of Array, if that makes sense.
