Problem with large const arrays

Zvend · September 28, 2022

so i have come across a problem declaring a large const array.

I have a ~500 index big array which i want to be a const, bcs of not changing the contents obviously.
I did that before without a problem like this

Global Const $LARGE_ARRAY = [ _
    0, _ ;~ Index 0
    5, _ ;~ Index 1
    12, _ ;~ Index 2
    ;~ <...>
    7, _  ;~ Index 511
    25 _ ;~ Index 512
]

this works fine until a certain point, bcs the autoit stripper is turning the '_' into one line again and it is exceeding the autoit line limit, which causes the script not to start.
I have to remove the Const identifier, so i can solve it this way:

Global $LARGE_ARRAY[513]
$LARGE_ARRAY[0] = 0
$LARGE_ARRAY[1] = 5
$LARGE_ARRAY[2] = 12
;~ <...>
$LARGE_ARRAY[511] = 7
$LARGE_ARRAY[512] = 25

which solves the problem.
but now it is not a const anymore which I really want.
I came onto the idea declaring a local variable inside a function this way and save the result into a global const on startup but
it does not feel correct to me.

Can anybody enlighten me on a feature i havent found in the helpfile yet?

so..., a constant declaration. What for ?!, is your code !, unless you don't trust yourself and are afraid of ... something ?
This is scripted language and me as a non-coder, could not care less about constants.
Then again, why declare an array as constant ?.
In any case, 512 entries in an array is not a large array. It should work fine. ( read the help file about constrains and limits )

As far as a constant array:

Func MyArray()
    Local Static $aArray[513] = [512] 
    Return $aArray
EndFunc

would this work ?

I dont think you read my post correctly. Its not about the size of the array.
It is about the line limit permitted by autoit, which is 4095. (Ref: Here, line 3: MAX_LINESIZE)

It is a predefined infrastructure from my company in c++. So it must be constant.
And even tho 512 is not "large", it is big enough to be bigger than 4095 bytes to fit in one line and make the script not executable.

ok, this is the new sample array:

hmm, looks messy here but, it chopped it at just shy of the 4095 char. long.
So try updating the stripper with the one from beta files and tell me if that did it.

Seems like a lot of effort?

What about:

Global $TEMP_ARRAY[513]
$TEMP_ARRAY[0] = 0
$TEMP_ARRAY[1] = 5
$TEMP_ARRAY[2] = 12
;~ <...>
$TEMP_ARRAY[511] = 7
$TEMP_ARRAY[512] = 25

Global Const $LARGE_ARRAY = $TEMP_ARRAY

ReDim $TEMP_ARRAY[0]

actually is not. The code is an import from another file ( a C++ declaration file ) so that's the reason to make it work as desired.
But the issue is that the stripper is not behaving as expected, so I bet an update will fix it.

Intresting approach, this makes it for sure. I was just hoping for an more official way from autoit.

I need a bit of backwards compatibility and to correct myself, i forgot to mention that the script is not executable after compiling it
and some values of the array are 2048 bytes long :]

So the Temp Array solved this. thank you!
Unless somebody wanna share a different approach how to handle such situations, this topic is done
