As stated in the second link, C++ and specially C work by doing most of the computations during compile time rather than runtime. This way, the MCU executes a set of predefined (or precompiled) steps during runtime. Therefor, it cannot change it's variable names or recompile them in runtime, no. Source 1 has some code snippets that might prove to be work arounds, however.</P> <P>Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.</P> <P>BR,<BR />Edwin.</P> Wed, 08 Nov 2023 01:10:27 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/i-MX-Processors/C-Convert-string-to-variable-name/m-p/1753768#M215402 EdwinHz 2023-11-08T01:10:27Z
