CNVGetArrayDataDimensions
int CNVGetArrayDataDimensions (CNVData data, size_t numberOfDimensions, size_t dimensions[]);
Purpose
Gets the dimensions of the array data.
Note that different programming environments may interpret multidimensional arrays in different formats. For example, two-dimensional arrays can be interpreted in row-major or column-major formats. This can affect the dimensions and data of multidimensional arrays communicated between different programming environments.
Parameters
