Multiple Concurrent Arrays?

[Teflon]

Very noob question, but can AutoIt handle working with multiple arrays at the same time? For example, if I _FileListToArray, can I build another array based off of certain file attributes of subdirs from the _FileListToArray?

Name the arrays differently, and you can do whatever you want.

Somthing like

$Dir = "YourDir"
$oFS = ObjCreate("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
$aArray1 = _FileListToArray($Dir,"*",1) ; only return files

$iCounter = 1
Dim $aArray2[$iCounter]
For $i=1 To ubound($aArray1) - 1
   $oFile = $oFS.getFile($Dir & "" & $aArray1[$i])
   If $oFile.attributeyouneedtocheckagainst="BLAH" Then ; add your conditions here
      ReDim $aArray2[$iCounter]
      $aArray2[$iCounter] = $aArray1[$i]
      $iCounter = $iCounter + 1
   EndIf
Next

If you are only looking at names, then change the filter param on _FileListToArray

You can create multiple arrays with different names, but for this it might be better to use a two dimensional array which is basically a table. There are plenty of examples to study on this forum. You might want to start here.
