[Solved] I need my program create itself variable

[Elliotest]

Hello, I saw some thread but it didn't help me. All I want to do is to make like $v1, $v2, $v3 automatically as for exemple I say I want 10 variables the program create 10 variables $v....

The Dim command didn't help me, I think it doesnt create $v1 $v2...

I tried this but don't work:

$i = 1
$nbrv = 10
Dim $v[1]
While $i <= $nbrv - 1
   $v[$i-1] = 0
   $i = $i + 1
   ReDim $v[$i]
WEnd

If you can help me it would be nice.

Thanks for future answers

 

EDIT: The command Assign ("v"$i,0) solved my problem

You can use the Assign function in a loop

For $iVarNum = 1 To 10
    Assign("v" & $iVarNum, $iVarNum)
Next

Ok thank you I will give it a try

[TheDcoder]

Let me know if it works

[Elliotest]

Ok, so, for your code, it works fine, I did this:

For $i = 1 To $nbrv+1
    Assign("v" & $i-1, 0)
 Next

Because I want to start at 0

And now, I need to make a certain number of checkbox, I did:

For $i = 1 To $nbrv+1
   $b&$i-1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("",10,(30+$i*20))
Next

But got error "Expected a "=" operator in assignment statement.:"

I already have done the GUICreate but for some reasons it won't initialize the variable...

Glad to know that my code works . About your other question, I recommend you to ask to MODs to split the thread with the question about GUI in the AutoIt GUI Help forum, only 1 question per 1 thread

If I just delete half of my message it will be fine ?

I would not recomment using assign for this but use an Array variable to hold all Control handles., much cleaner!

Not sure where this comes from but no need to suggest that.

You're fine.

Sorry @Jos, I thought this forum followed the "one question per thread" policy. Again, many apologies

[Jos]

Guess I don't see the 2 topics in this single thread and only see one question.
Agree it's better to open a new thread when the question is totally separate, but not per see when they are related.

So you are talking about for exemple $v[1] etc... ?

If it is this I already tested it but I really don't know how it works because for exemple I created something like this

$i = 1
Dim $b[1]
While $i <= $nbrv - 1
$b[$i-1] = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("",10,(30+$i*20))
$i = $i + 1
ReDim $b[$i]
WEnd

But got value like 9 for $b[0] and 10 for $b[1] so it wont save their state in a ini file like I would want to...

I have troubles trying to intepret what you are trying to do.
What is the content of $nbrv?  
Why not Dim the array with the correct size in stead of doing a redim all the time?
Simply do a for...Next loop for the number of CheckBoxes you need to create to keep it simple.
What is the issue with the 9 and 10 as you likely have defined 8 other Controls before this? (Show the whole code so we understand what you are doing!)

This is my code before I change the Dim for For:

expandcollapse popup

#include <File.au3>
#include <FileConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
$nbrv = 10
For $i = 1 To $nbrv+1
    Assign("v" & $i-1, 0)
 Next
Example()

Func Example()
$hGUI = GUICreate("Example", 1800, 900)
$idClose1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 1750,850)
$i = 1
Dim $b[1]
Dim $bs[1]
While $i <= $nbrv - 1
   $b[$i-1] = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("",10,(30+$i*20))
   $bs[$i-1] = IniRead("C:\Users\Elliotest\Desktop\Config.txt","Section1","sec"&$i-1,"")
   $i = $i + 1
   ReDim $b[$i]
   ReDim $bs[$i]
WEnd
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
    $idMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    $i = 1
    Dim $v[1]
    While ($idMsg <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE) And ($idMsg <> $idClose1)
       If GUICtrlRead($b&$i-1) = $GUI_CHECKED Then $v[$i-1] = 2
          $i = $i + 1
          ReDim $v[$i]
          If $i > $nbrv Then $i = 0
          $idMsg = GUIGetMsg()
     WEnd
$i = 1
While $i <= $nbrv - 1
$bs[$i-1] = GUICtrlRead($b&$i-1)
IniWrite("C:\Users\Elliotest\Desktop\Config.txt","Section1","sec"&$i-1,$bs[$i-1])
   $i = $i + 1
   ReDim $b[$i]
   ReDim $bs[$i]
WEnd
    GUIDelete($hGUI)
    $hGUIClosed = 1
 EndFunc

Here is a re-worked version of your script (untested) to give you an idea how I would do this:

expandcollapse popup

#include <File.au3>
#include <FileConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPIFiles.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
Global $nbrv = 10
Global $b[$nbrv]
Global $bs[$nbrv]
Example()

Func Example()
    $hGUI = GUICreate("Example", 1800, 900)
    $idClose1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 1750, 850)
    $i = 1
    Dim $b[1]
    Dim $bs[1]
    For $i = 0 to $nbrv-1
        $b[$i] = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("", 10, (30 + $i * 20))
        $bs[$i] = IniRead("C:\Users\Elliotest\Desktop\Config.txt", "Section1", "sec" & $i - 1, "")
    Next
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Switch $msg
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
            Case $idClose1
                ExitLoop
        EndSwitch
        For $i = 0 to $nbrv-1
            if $b[$i] = $msg Then
                if GUICtrlRead($b[$i]) = $GUI_CHECKED Then
                ; don't understand what you want to do when the checkbox is clinked
                EndIf
            EndIf
        Next
    Wend
    GUIDelete($hGUI)
    $hGUIClosed = 1
EndFunc   ;==>Example

You still have to add the code to perform when a checkbox is checked/un-checked.

Thanks for the help, but now it doesn't work, I just want the checkboxes states to be saved in a ini file, I already managed to do this without those array things and did manually, but I need to do this with like I set $nbrv = 10 and then it creates 10 checkboxes, and save their states in a ini file.

Thanks again for your help
