create an array

[Brenda1]

Hello Guys, is friday and I am complety lost! I need to put some information in one array (yes I know, as simple as that) this is my code:

$groups = $oUsr.groups  
    $tempbis = $oUsr.memberof
    
    For $groupname In $groups
        $test= $groupname.distinguishedname;this is what I want to put in the array
                                 $array= $array + $test
    Next

this is not working and I just want to use a simple array to get this information stored. Heeeeelp

Check out _ArrayAdd in the helpfile

Not being familiar with the data structure you are trying to add to the array, you may want to check out the UDF Array functions:

_ArrayAdd

_ArrayInsert

may be what you are looking for.

EDIT: what monoceres said

what I am getting with:

$test= $groupname.distinguishedname

is something like: "$test=Group;type;rights;servers" but one account can have many groups, thats why I want to store them in one array, I try to put this:

For $groupname In $groups
     $test= $groupname.distinguishedname
     _ArrayAdd($aArray,$test)
        
Next

but didn't wooork!!!! =(

You declared $aArray as an array beforehand, right? You know, "Dim $aArray[0]"?

[Brenda1]

You declared $aArray as an array beforehand, right? You know, "Dim $aArray[0]"?

yes I declared the array like this:

dim $aArray[0]
    $groups = $oUsr.groups 
    $tempbis = $oUsr.memberof
    
    For $groupname In $groups
        $test= $groupname.distinguishedname
        _ArrayAdd($aArray,$test)
    Next

and I got this error:

test.au3(24,26) : ERROR: _ArrayAdd(): undefined function.
        _ArrayAdd($aArray,$test)
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

what I am doing is getting information for some accounts, I need to know which account belong to diferents "groups", with "$test= $groupname.distinguishedname" I get the info for just one group, but the accoun have differents groups, that is what I want to storage in the array, all the groups of each account.

Help me guys I don't know what is wrong

Two points:

1. You don't declare an array with 0 elements, so use Global $aArray[1] to declare it.

2. The _ArrayAdd() function is a User Defined Function (UDF) included in the Array.au3 file, so add this to the top of your script: #include <Array.au3>

[Richard Robertson]

Why can't you declare a 0 length array? I thought that was allowed.

Why can't you declare a 0 length array? I thought that was allowed.

I noticed just yesterday that SciTe issues a warning when you do this: "Warning - array badly formed".

[Richard Robertson]

Huh, well that's something I didn't know. I'm just used to being able to declare 0 length arrays in other languages then probably.

thank you so much for your help, I didn't know I coudn't declare arrays with 0 elements in autoIT, and yes the library was missing too. =)
