dynamic variable names

Hello there,

I have a single module that can be called by several modules.
for each of these several modules, I have Globale variables related to them.

if I call my unique module with Module1, I want the single Module to work with Module1 Global variable, if it's called from Module2, then we use module 2...

short example:

Code:

---

private void Module1()
{
        SingleModule(ModuleName)
}

private void Module2()
{
        SingleModule(ModuleName)
}

private void SingleModule(string ModuleName)
{
      if ( GlobaleVariable == true)
          GlobalVariable = false;
}

---

so in this example, the variable name of [GlobalVariable] should differ based on the module calling the Single Module.

I know I could get around by using a SWITCH / CASE in my SingleModule for each seperated module calling it, but there's gotta be a better way, since the use of a SWITCH /CASE would involve programming change in my SingleModule each time I create another module calling it...


your help would be greatly appreciated...

thanks.

Firstly, try to avoid global variables wherever possible.

Secondly, why not just pass a reference to the relevant variables when calling the module?

Hello Peter,

Thanks for the quick response btw.

the reson I was not using a reference is that since I'm quite new to all this, I was not aware of this REF method, you pointed me to the right direction, and everything works now :)

thanks!!
