How do I set a static variable value?

Author	Message
Peter Hamilton-Scot #1 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? Folks. If I declare a static variable like this: Static Dim X As Integer then X is initialised to 0. How do I set the initial value to say 241? In C terms, I want the equivalent of: static long int X = 241; Any ideas? Peter

BKD #2 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? Set a flag (also static) the first time through and use it as a test to see if the Static needs to be initialized. Then initialize it manually: static X as Integer static flag as integer if flag = 0 then X = 241 flag = 1 end if Brian- Quote: >Folks. >If I declare a static variable like this: >Static Dim X As Integer >then X is initialised to 0.

Neila Ness #3 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? Maybe you need two static variables to do this? Static blnInitialized as Boolean Static X as Integer If Not blnInitialized Then X=241 blnInitialized =True End If ........

lenlut #4 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? you miay not like this BUT private function muFunction() static valye as integer static first as integer ' set to 0 if(first = 0) then value = 234 fidst = 1 end if etc. you might also check the "initial" " default" value of a Bool (first as bool) Quote: > Folks. > If I declare a static variable like this: > Static Dim X As Integer > then X is initialised to 0.

lenlut #5 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? seems like booleans are default to false:, same logic though.

Peter Hamilton-Scot #6 / 6	How do I set a static variable value? Folks, tks for the replies. All consistent with each other so it seems it's the only way. I just thought it could be initialised at design time, much like the syntax of a Const...
