change stringsplit array

[wese85]

#include <array.au3>

Global $Data[2]
Global $test[2] = ["hello,test,yes","no,bu,zam,xod"]


For $n = 0 To 1
$Data[$n] = StringSplit($test[$n],",")
Next

($Data[1])[1] = "gar"

_ArrayDisplay($Data[1])

Hello,

does anyone have any idea why this array cannot be changed.

thanks in advance

You cannot assign new value like that.  You can retrieve it with the way you use, but cannot set it.

One way :

#include <array.au3>

Global $Data[2]
Global $test[2] = ["hello,test,yes","no,bu,zam,xod"]

For $n = 0 To 1
  $Data[$n] = StringSplit($test[$n],",")
Next

SetArray($data[1], 1, "gar")
_ArrayDisplay($Data[1])

Func SetArray (ByRef $aArr, $iIdx, $vVal)
  $aArr[$iIdx] = $vVal
EndFunc

Pretty sure this is a bug.

Assigning a value to expression should return an error, lest one think that some variable is actually being modified somewhere.

In its purest form it doesn’t even involve arrays, for instance:

Local $a=1, $b=2

($a) = $b

ConsoleWrite($a)

The second statement should throw an AutoIt error, something to the effect of 

Cannot assign value to an expression.
