Arrays, keep on getting extra rows

[toto22]

Every-time I do "_ArrayPush()" or "_ArrayUnique" I'm keep on getting extra values in my Arrays @ position [0]. It seems to be a count of all the values in my Arrays. Is there a way to disable it? It is really frustrating. I'm keep on using _ArrayDelete($OArray,0)

Help File for _ArrayUnique

$iCount [optional] Flag to determine if [0] element holds the count of returned items (default) - see Remarks for details.

As I stated in your other array-related thread: The help file is your friend!

Thank you so much for your reply, now I'm on a right path

However, I'm such a noob. Do I modify $iCount in "Array.au3" file or do I declare my arrays in a certain way, may be something like this?

_ArrayUnique($NArray, $iDimension = 1, $iBase = 0, $iCase = 0, $vDelim = "|")
_ArrayUnique($OArray, $iDimension = 1, $iBase = 0, $iCase = 0, $vDelim = "|")

I'm working on a script that adds Text from a *.txt file to a ListBox (I want new bits of text to go on top of my listbox). However, those arrays are killing me.

my scrip is like this:

expandcollapse popup

Func Load()
    If $OArray[0] = "" Then
        $sFile = "symbols.txt"; open file for reading
        _FileReadToArray($sFile, $OArray)
        _ArrayDelete($OArray, 0)

        $OArray = _ArrayUnique($OArray)
        _ArrayDelete($OArray,0)

        For $i = 0 to UBound($OArray) - 1
            GUICtrlSetData($List1, $OArray[$i])
        Next
    EndIf



    IF $OArray[0] <> "" Then
        $sFile = "symbols.txt"; open file for reading
        _FileReadToArray($sFile, $NArray)
        _ArrayDelete($NArray, 0)

        $NArray = _ArrayUnique($NArray)
        _ArrayDelete($NArray,0)

        For $a = UBound($NArray) -1 To 0 Step -1
            For $b = 0 To UBound($OArray) - 1
                If $NArray[$a] = $OArray[$b] Then
                    _ArrayDelete($NArray, $a)
                    ExitLoop
                EndIf
            Next
        Next

        ;_ArrayDisplay($NArray)
        if IsArray($NArray) Then
            If $NArray[0] <> "" Then
                _ArrayPush($OArray,$NArray,1)   ;STOP THIS SHIT
                _GUICtrlListBox_ResetContent ( $List1 )
                For $i = 0 to UBound($OArray) - 1
                    GUICtrlSetData($List1, $OArray[$i])
                Next
                $NArray  = 0
                For $b = 0 To UBound($NArray) - 1
                        _ArrayDelete($NArray, $b)
                        ExitLoop
                Next
            EndIf
            $NArray = $aEmpty

        EndIf
    EndIf
EndFunc

 

 

[iamtheky]

_ArrayUnique ( Const ByRef $aArray [, $iColumn = 0 [, $iBase = 0 [, $iCase = 0 [, $iCount = $ARRAYUNIQUE_COUNT [, $iIntType = $ARRAYUNIQUE_AUTO]]]]] )

see how the first parameter doesnt have an equal sign, that one is required, that is the array you specify.

the others are preset for all intents and purposes so you are really sending _ArrayUnique($aArray, 0, 0, 0, $ARRAYUNIQUE_COUNT , $ARRAYUNIQUE_AUTO)

you want $ARRAYUNIQUE_NOCOUNT.

oh I just needed a new version of autoit

That shows us that it is always quite helpful to add the used AutoIt version to a new thread
