I have a problem in my EA

Hello to all. I have a problem in my EA: I can not pass a variable 'int' from my indicator to my EA. Here is the code, if you can make it work leave a comment. Thanks.

My EA:

#resource "\\Indicators\\Prova22b.ex5"
int var=0;

int OnInit()
  {
   var=iCustom(NULL,0,"Prova22");
   if(var==INVALID_HANDLE)
     {
      printf("Error obtaining handle");
      return(INIT_FAILED);
     }
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }

void OnTick()
  {
      double MyVarBuffer[];
      ArraySetAsSeries(MyVarBuffer,true);
      CopyBuffer(var,0,0,1,MyVarBuffer);
      Comment (MyVarBuffer[0]);
  }

My Indicator:

#property indicator_chart_window
#property indicator_plots 1
#property indicator_buffers 1

double var1[];
int OnInit()
  {
   SetIndexBuffer(0,var1,INDICATOR_DATA);
   PlotIndexSetDouble(0,PLOT_EMPTY_VALUE,0.0);
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }

int OnCalculate(const int rates_total,
                const int prev_calculated,
                const datetime &time[],
                const double &open[],
                const double &high[],
                const double &low[],
                const double &close[],
                const long &tick_volume[],
                const long &volume[],
                const int &spread[])
  {
   var1[0]=1;
   return(rates_total);
  }

why don't you reconstruct the indicator calculation into the EA?
as standard usage of indicator is to "Indicate" (visually, alert etc..)

 
Make it a buffer or global terminal variable or the name of a hidden chart object.
 
I can't reconstruct the indicator into the EA... This one that I sent is only an example is not the real one. It is only for understand what I did wrong. I need a buffer but probably I am doing something wrong because it does not work. If you know why please leave a comment.

buffer normally double value.
why do you need integer?

 
I also like a double. But even if it were double what is my mistake because it does not work?

   var1[rates_total-1]=1;
 
Thanks so much!
