array size allocation depending on variable

[Threepwood]

Hi everyone,

I am new in MQL4, and I had a simple question for you:

I'd like to size (allocate a given size to) a global array of uint depending on the result of a previous calculation.

Actually I'm trying to make a robot on which the user sets a given time interval, let's say 10 seconds, but could be 1 minute, 2 hours, 5 days, ...

For example:

extern uint g_UserTimeInterval_secs = 150; // user interval in seconds

uint g_numberofelements = g_UserTimeInterval_secs/1e-3; // as my reference unit time is 1ms

uint g_ticksvalues[g_numberofelements] = { 0 }; // <--- This is where I want so size my array depending on the previous line

int OnInit()

{

...

How can I do that?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

François

ArrayResize() is you friend. But study the example there.
