= YAML static array field type objects
A _**static array field type object**_ is the type of static array data
fields, found in xref:how-barectf-works:ctf-primer.adoc#ds[data
streams].
A static array data field is a sequence of data fields, or
_elements_. In CTF, the number of elements in a static array data field
(its length) is found in the
xref:how-barectf-works:ctf-primer.adoc#trace[metadata stream].

== Properties
[%autowidth.stretch, cols="d,d,a,d"]
|===
|Name |Type |Description |{req-abbr}
|[[class-prop]]`class`
|String
|This property's value must be `static-array`.
|Yes if the <<inherit-prop,`$inherit`>> property is not set.
include::partial$ft-obj-inherit-prop.adoc[]
|[[length-prop]]`length`
|Positive integer
|Number of elements in this field type's instances.
|Yes
|[[element-ft-prop]]`element-field-type`
|xref:ft-obj.adoc[Field type object] (except a
xref:struct-ft-obj.adoc[structure field type object] and a
xref:dyn-array-ft-obj.adoc[dynamic array field type object]) or string
|Type of each element (data fields) in this field type's instances.
If this property's value is a string, it must be the name of an existing
xref:trace-type-obj.adoc#ft-aliases-prop[field type alias]. This
field type must _not_ be a structure field type or a dynamic array
field type.
|Yes

== Generated C{nbsp}types
Pointer to `const __T__`, where `__T__` is the generated C{nbsp}type for
the field type object of the <<element-ft-prop,`element-field-type`
property>>.
