cmset_op question (Craig) [message #38346]

Hello,

I've been using cmset_op with abandon and have really appreciated it.
Recently, I found behaviour that was unexpected to me.

Here's the example:

IDL> a = [1]
IDL> b = ['1']
IDL> print, cmset_op(a, 'and' a)
1
IDL> print, cmset_op(b, 'and' b)
1 1

cmset_op returns unique values in the case of an integer array but not
in the case of a string array.

Is this intended?
And if so, how can I return the unique elements of a string array
using cmset_op?

I know that I can use uniq() built into idl, but would prefer to use
cmset_op if possible.

Thanks in advance,
James
