TArray<T> helper

[Tommi Prami 131]

Stumbled upon this.  https://github.com/WilliCommer/ArrayHelper

This really should be part of RTL already.

Good job from author, If in RTL would not need add unit to the uses. (OR paste unit of one's own but...)

It's a helper for TArray, not for TArray<T>, by necessity. I think spring4d has something similar.

@Tommi Prami
It would have been awesome if we could do helpers for generics.  We can't.

Some of the methods in that helper are obsolete since XE7 because we have Insert, Add, Delete for dynamic arrays.

Most of the other methods are in Spring.pas TArray which is not a helper for the System.Generics.Collections one but reimplements its methods and adds its own.

 

For the TArrayRecord<T> type Spring.pas has Vector<T> (the naming is taken from C++ where this is the dynamic array type name)
