Global Variables

Hello, I have an EA and a Indicator, running at the same time, Why do not take the Global variable the 2 value in the Expert. Both programs are under #property strict with the Expert within a loop OnTick, and the Indicator into OnCalculate.

Expert

double GV_Ind;
Print(" Global Variable GV_Ind= ",GlobalVariableGet(GV_Ind));

Indicator

double GV_Ind=1;
GlobalVariableSet(GV_Ind,2);

Thak you very much.

Don't post code that doesn't compile. Perhaps you should read the manual.

Your code	Documentation
double GV_Ind; GlobalVariableGet( GV_Ind ) . . . .	double GlobalVariableGet( string name // Global variable name ); // or bool GlobalVariableGet( string name, // Global variable name double& double_var // This variable will contain the value of the global variable );

Your code

Documentation

double GV_Ind;
GlobalVariableGet(
   GV_Ind
)

.
.
.
.

double  
GlobalVariableGet(
   string  name      // Global variable name
   );
// or
bool  GlobalVariableGet(
   string  name,      // Global variable name
   double& double_var // This variable will contain the value of the global variable
   );

But it continues without change the value in the Expert.

Yes, there are two GV_Ind, one the GV_Ind variable (0 value) of program and the GlobalVariableGet(GV_Ind) (2 value).

Ok, doesn't matter at all.

Piti12: Ok, doesn't matter at all.

You missed the point completely. You get or set a global variable and they have a name. The double GV_Ind is not a name.
