matrixbase::SetSize

Description

Set the size of any matrixbase derived object.

Syntax

BOOL SetSize( UINT wNumRows, UINT wNumCols, BOOL bKeepData = FALSE )

Parameters

wNumRows
[input] The number of rows in the newly sized matrix
wNumCols
[input] The number of columns in the newly sized matrix
bKeepData
[input] TRUE, when matrix already has data, the data in same position will be same as before doing SetSize.
If the new size is bigger than original size, for new cells, they are filled with zeros, just same as in new matrix creation;
FALSE when matrix already has data, the data in same position will be not same as before doing SetSize.

Return

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Examples

EX1

// Simple size setting for a new matrix
void matrixbase_SetSize_ex1()
{
    BOOL rc;
    
    matrix mat1;
    int wNumRows = 3;
    int wNumCols = 4;
    rc=mat1.SetSize( wNumRows, wNumCols );      // Set the number of rows and columns in matrix
    
    if(!rc) 
        printf("Error: SetSize on a matrix failed.\n");
    else
    {

        MatrixLayer MatLy1 = MatPg1.Layers(0);

        Mat1 = mat1;
        printf("Observe if the created Origin matrix window %s is %dx%d\n",
          Mat1.GetName(),wNumRows,wNumCols);

EX2

// Shrink an already-existing matrix

        Matrix Mat2(MatLy2);
        Mat2 = mat2;
        printf("Observe that the shrunk matrix %s is 2x2, and the values are preserved.\n",
          Mat2.GetName());
    }
}

EX3

// Expand an already-existing matrix
void matrixbase_SetSize_ex3()
{
    BOOL rc;

    matrix<double> mat1 = {
        {1,  1,  1,  1},
        {2,  4,  6,  8},

    };
    MatrixPage MatPg1;
    MatPg1.Create("Origin");
    MatrixLayer MatLy1 = MatPg1.Layers(0);
    Matrix Mat1(MatLy1);
    Mat1 = mat1;
    printf("The original matrix %s is 3x4.\n",Mat1.GetName());
    
    
    matrix mat3(mat1);
    rc=mat3.SetSize( 4, 5, FALSE);      // Expanded matrix to 4x5; bKeepData = FALSE;
    if(!rc) 
        printf("Error3: SetSize on a matrix failed.\n");
    else
    {
        MatrixPage MatPg3;

        MatrixLayer MatLy3 = MatPg3.Layers(0);
        Matrix Mat3(MatLy3);
        Mat3 = mat3;
        printf("Observe that the expanded matrix %s is 4x5, and the original data may be broken.\n",
          Mat3.GetName());
    }
}

Remark

Set the size (number of columns and number of rows) in any matrixbase derived object (e.g. matrix, Matrix).
