Use a pointer.
string Channel_Name = InpChannelName; // DECLARATION OF CHANNEL NAME string Bot_Token = InpBotToken; // DECLARATION OF TOKEN API Bot *Telegram; // TELEGRAM POINTER DECLARATION //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //| Expert initialization function | //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ int OnInit() { //--- CheckInputs(); // CHECK IF INPUTS ARE BY DEFAULT OR PERSONAL //--- return(INIT_SUCCEEDED); } //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ //|CHECK INPUTS | //+------------------------------------------------------------------+ void CheckInputs() { if(Channel_Name == "") // USE DEFAULT CHANNEL IF EMPTY IN INPUTS { Channel_Name = "@xxxx"; // DEFAULT CHANNEL TO CHANGE IN LATER STAGE IF NEEDED } if(Bot_Token == "") // USE DEFAULT BOT TOKEN IF EMPTY IN INPUTS { Bot_Token = "xxxxx"; // DEFAULT BOT TOKEN TO CHANGE IN LATER STAGE IF NEEDED } Telegram = new Bot(Channel_Name, Bot_Token); // Object creation }
Not tested.
Don't forget to delete the pointer in OnDeInit().

Hello everyone,
I'd like some help regarding a class declaration, I basically want to declare a new class on a global scope to be used in different functions, but this class uses variables as parameters that may not be correctly initialised until the OnInit() function, is there a way to declare a class in a local scope and make it a global class ?
Or maybe can I declare the class on the global scope and then Initialise it in the local scope, I mean if a class is declared, it will automatically be initialised I suppose.
Here is my example, I basically declare and initialise my Bot class before the OnInit() function but obviously the Channel_name and Bot_token variables may not be correct as it hasn't gone through the CheckInputs() function yet. I am scratching my head here to find a solution, if someone could advise me on this that would be amazing!!
Thank you very much.
