    I think I need to pass Java Arrays to the function instead of Jscript array, not sure what the syntax would be for that. any help is greatly appreciated.

    You can create Java arrays using the java.lang.reflect.Array class. You need to add the following classes to project properties > Java Bridge > Java Classes:

     

    java.lang.reflect.Array

    java.lang.Class

     

    Here's how you can create an integer array with 2 elements:

    var intType = JavaClasses.java_lang.Class.forName("java.lang.Integer");
var arrCols = JavaClasses.java_lang_reflect.Array.newInstance_2(intType, 2);
arrCols.Items(0) = 31;
arrCols.Items(1) = 35;

    Char and bool arrays can be created similarly - as arrays of types java.lang.Character and java.lang.Boolean.

Hello,

 

As far as I can tell, you are trying to use a Java class (package) in TestComplete. Please note that TestComplete doesn't support this language. Therefore, you cannot use the Java types in TestComplete.

 

So, you need to implement this algorithm on JScript or JavaScript and use the array type of these languages.
