Have Simpler Array Object Calling

I don't know if you can already do this but it would be simpler if you could call objects from within arrays. For example:


int[] box = {int x = 0, int y = 0, int width = 40}

pushMatrix();
translate(box.x, box.y, 0; //and then call it like this
box(bow.width);
popMatrix();


If that is possible please enlighten me, I've been teswting for a while now.

No, you can't do that.

You can however create a wrapper class:

Code:
myClass
{
  int x,y,width;
  myClass int_x, int _y, int _width)
  {
    x=_x;
    y=_y;
    width=_width;
  }
}

void draw()
{
  myClass box=new myClass(0,0,40);
  pushMatrix();
  translate(box.x,box.y);
  box(box.width);
  popMatrix();
}
