Copy Const Array To Dynamic Array In Delphi

Answer :

This will copy constAry1 to dynAry.

SetLength(dynAry, Length(constAry1));
Move(constAry1[Low(constAry1)], dynAry[Low(dynAry)], SizeOf(constAry1));

function CopyByteArray(const C: array of Byte): TByteDynArray;
begin
  SetLength(Result, Length(C));
  Move(C[Low(C)], Result[0], Length(C));
end;

procedure TFormMain.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
const
  C: array[1..10] of Byte = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10);
var
  D: TByteDynArray;
  I: Integer;
begin
  D := CopyByteArray(C);
  for I := Low(D) to High(D) do
    OutputDebugString(PChar(Format('%d: %d', [I, D[I]])));
end;

procedure TFormMain.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
const
  C: array[1..10, 1..10] of Byte = (
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10),
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10));

var
  D: array of TByteDynArray;
  I, J: Integer;
begin
  SetLength(D, Length(C));
  for I := 0 to Length(D) - 1 do
    D[I] := CopyByteArray(C[Low(C) + I]);

  for I := Low(D) to High(D) do
    for J := Low(D[I]) to High(D[I]) do
      OutputDebugString(PChar(Format('%d[%d]: %d', [I, J, D[I][J]])));
end;

From Delphi XE7, the use of string-like operations with arrays is allowed. Then you can declare a constant of a dynamic array directly. For example:

const
  KEY: TBytes = [$97, $45, $3b, $3e, $c8, $14, $c9, $e1];
