threading and variable issues

[earthlingj 13]

Hey, I completely understand hwo to thread and stuff, but the issue im having is with variables..

in some cases... i would like to 'pass' a variable from 1 command to another. is that possible?

 

 

for now since i couldnt figure it out i combined all my commands into 1 command... now the problem is... my variables aren't changing.. so lets say i have a variable #newusername which = account random lastname + random numbers. but when running each thread is trying to register the exact same account. I have set the variables to local as well.

how is the variable being set?

 

with list data? account data? if account data do you have reset account data before your variables that use it?

[earthlingj 13]

i am setting data using account data(lastname)+random numbers(100-99999)

[LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904]

so do you have a reset account data at the top of that defined command?

 

if not place one there and will solve your problem.

[earthlingj 13]

Yes, I have reset account already there

[earthlingj 13]

I think the problem is the variable is being over-written by other threads even though i have it set to local

can you show me how you have your threading setup, and the code, otherwise i cant really debug the problem.

 

I can give you suggestions but they are blind unless i actually know how you have it setup i cant fix it.

I actually figured it out, but i want it to be more organized. is it possible to pass variable data from 1 command to another? i seem to not be able to do it

[LoWrIdErTJ - BotGuru 904]

yes by using parameters..

 

you have to set the parameter to be pasted to the next command, and or just call the local variable from the 1 command that is being used in the next command within that thread.

hmm are there any example codes around?

[earthlingj 13]

anything on this? I could really use it. my bot is all multi threaded up and works, but only will complete 1 account, because on all the other threads its using the same variable as teh first thread.. and when i localize it doesnt work because it doesnt get passed from 1 command to another even in the same thread

Feel free to private message me with the code to take a look at what your problem is, ill adjust it and send it back to you.

 

its normally something small, but can be over looked very easily
