# xpc_array_get_array(_:_:)

Returns the array at the specified index in the array.

## Declaration

```swift
func xpc_array_get_array(_ xarray: xpc_object_t, _ index: Int) -> xpc_object_t?
```

## Parameters

- `xarray`: The array object which is to be examined.
- `index`: The index of the value to obtain. This value must lie within the range of indexes as specified in doc://com.apple.xpc/documentation/XPC/xpc_array_set_value(_:_:_:).

## Return Value

Return Value The object at the specified index within the array or NULL if the given object was not an XPC array or if the the value at the specified index was not an array.

## Discussion

Discussion This method does not grant the caller a reference to the underlying object, so the caller is not responsible for releasing the object.
