Weird problem...

#include <Array.au3>

Local $a_AllFoundComputers[4]   = ["host-00", "host-01", "host-02", "host-03"]
Local $a_TmpFoundComputers  = $a_AllFoundComputers
_ArrayDisplay($a_AllFoundComputers)

For $i=0 To UBound($a_AllFoundComputers) - 1
    $i_Roundtrip = Ping($a_AllFoundComputers[$i], 20)
    If $i_Roundtrip = 0 And @error >= 0 Then 
        _ArrayDelete($a_TmpFoundComputers, $i-1)
    EndIf
Next

_ArrayDisplay($a_TmpFoundComputers)

I'm getting mad!!! Please help me out...given: "host-02" is reachable and online. Normally, I would use the following line to sort out offline hosts from my array: _ArrayDelete($a_TmpFoundComputers, $i). But that doesn't work! For what reason ever "host-01" is the one remaining in "$a_TmpFoundComputers". To get the correct result I have to subtract 1 from "$i". Why???

I'm going crazy here...!

You have not really thought about what happens when you remove an element form the array.

The problem is that you are counting from 0 to Ubound - 1. You should instead count from Ubound -1 down to 0.

The way you are doing it means that when an element is deleted, all the other elements above are shifted down one position. So isay you delete [2] and then delete[3] well you are actually deleting [2] then what was [4]

Try this

#include <Array.au3>

Local $a_AllFoundComputers[4]   = ["host-00", "host-01", "host-02", "host-03"]
Local $a_TmpFoundComputers  = $a_AllFoundComputers
_ArrayDisplay($a_AllFoundComputers)

For $i= UBound($a_AllFoundComputers) - 1 to 0 step -1
    $i_Roundtrip = Ping($a_AllFoundComputers[$i], 20)
    If $i_Roundtrip = 0 And @error >= 0 Then 
        _ArrayDelete($a_TmpFoundComputers, $i-1)
    EndIf
Next

_ArrayDisplay($a_TmpFoundComputers)

Hi there m8,

I tryed your script and is going well.

I changed the hostnames, 2 will ping and the other two dont, i all's good.

#include <Array.au3>

Local $a_AllFoundComputers[4]   = ["127.0.0.1", "localhost", "thor", "mastadonte"]
Local $a_TmpFoundComputers  = $a_AllFoundComputers
_ArrayDisplay($a_AllFoundComputers)

For $i=0 To UBound($a_AllFoundComputers) - 1
    $i_Roundtrip = Ping($a_AllFoundComputers[$i], 20)
    If $i_Roundtrip = 0 And @error >= 0 Then 
        ConsoleWrite("Response : " & $i_Roundtrip & " for : " & $a_AllFoundComputers[$i]& @CRLF & "Error : " & @error & @CRLF)
        _ArrayDelete($a_TmpFoundComputers, $i)
    Else
        ConsoleWrite("Response : " & $i_Roundtrip & " for : " & $a_AllFoundComputers[$i]& @CRLF & "Error : " & @error & @CRLF)
    EndIf
Next
_ArrayDisplay($a_AllFoundComputers)
_ArrayDisplay($a_TmpFoundComputers)

Cheers

Hi Martin,

Yes, you're right. My fault. I thought, copying the array would help me solving this problem - but of course the same happens to the temp-array as well. I'll give your solution a shot and report back soon.

Regards, Chris

Nope, it isn't. Your first two entries reply, the other ones don't, I suppose? Just move the 127.0.0.1 to the third or fourth position and you will see the problem...

(but I'm very glad to see that I'm not the only one having missed Martin's advice) :)

...and so do I. I'm glad there was a rational solution for my problem, or I'd definitely gone mad...I was scratching my head for about 3 hours about this...but if you visualize it, it's completely clear: a "stack" of items that is checked from top to bottom.

Martin: thank you so much - your the guy that made my day!
