How to use multiple variable that are not arrays

[zILikeAutoITz 0]

Hi AutoItscripter's,

I have trouble with trying to write multiple variables to loop and use them. I have variables that contains "Control ID's" and send them with a function to destroy them. Please see the example.

My english is bad command, sorry for that i try my best.

I have make an example to make it more clear:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

guiMain()

Func guiMain()
    GUICreate("", 200, 80)
    $g2d1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("First choice", 10, 4)
    $g2d2 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Second choice", 90, 4)
    $g2d3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("label1", 10, 30)
    $g2d4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("label2", 90, 30)
    $g2d5 = GUICtrlCreateButton("delete", 10, 50, 40, 18)

    GUISetState()       ;Show GUI

    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()

        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                GUIDelete()
                Exit
            Case $msg = $g2d5
                controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d2, $g2d3, $g2d4, $g2d5)
        EndSelect
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d2, $g2d3, $g2d4, $g2d5)
    Local $g2d
    For $zcnt = 1 To 5 Step 1
        GUICtrlDelete($g2d & $zcnt)     ; somes are gone, i guess they are another id
    Next
;~  ConsoleWrite($g2d5)     ;test
EndFunc

Yeah it's true if i can use arrays like $array[1]....$array[*n] than it's easy but i'm send them with a function. So i would to loop the "$g2d" and add the loop counter to him but can't get it to work like i think. Or may be it can't be done in this way that i'm thinking. >,<

Any advice will be appreciate. Thank you.

Control IDs are numbered sequentially upon creation of the control.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

guiMain()

Func guiMain()
    GUICreate("", 200, 80)
    $g2d1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("First choice", 10, 4)
    $g2d2 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Second choice", 90, 4)
    $g2d3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("label1", 10, 30)
    $g2d4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("label2", 90, 30)
    $g2d5 = GUICtrlCreateButton("delete", 10, 50, 40, 18)

    GUISetState() ;Show GUI

    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()

        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                GUIDelete()
                Exit
            Case $msg = $g2d5
                controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d5)
        EndSelect
    WEnd
EndFunc   ;==>guiMain

Func controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d5)
    Local $g2d
    For $zcnt = $g2d1 To $g2d5
        GUICtrlDelete($zcnt)
    Next
EndFunc   ;==>controlDestroy

You could use Eval() in a loop to get the value of multiple sequentially named variables. But using techniques like that means you have left sane coding practices far behind you.

Woww,

Thank you very much, Malkey. Hmm, it seems that it start from what i need to loop. I think i understand it more for now, about control id's like you sayed. Thank's !!

Thank you for advice with the Eval() function i will give a try, this function seems very useful at the situtaion like this, thanks too !!

I'm very appreciate.

Edit: Added stuff.

But using techniques like that means you have left sane coding practices far behind you.

Does that mean i must do more practice? Sorry i'm try to understand u.

So i have tried about the Eval() Func is think it's working, (for now)

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

guiMain()

Func guiMain()
    GUICreate("", 200, 80)
    $g2d1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("First choice", 10, 4)
    $g2d2 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Second choice", 90, 4)
    $g2d3 = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("label1", 10, 30)
    $g2d4 = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("label2", 90, 30)
    $g2d5 = GUICtrlCreateButton("delete", 10, 50, 40, 18)

    GUISetState()       ;Show GUI

    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                GUIDelete()
                Exit
            Case $msg = $g2d5
                controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d2, $g2d3, $g2d4, $g2d5)
        EndSelect
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func controlDestroy($g2d1, $g2d2, $g2d3, $g2d4, $g2d5)
    Local $g2d
    For $zcnt = 1 To 5 Step 1
        $g2d = Eval("g2d" & $zcnt)
        GUICtrlDelete($g2d)
        ConsoleWrite($g2d & @LF)        ;test
    Next
EndFunc

Thank's
