ArrayFindString problem

Hello,
Today I was trying to search for a string that was passed in a dynamic array, but this native seems to not working properly.

This is the test function registered as a clcmd in plugin_init():

PHP Code:


		
			
public clcmd_test(id)

{

    new arg[48];



    read_argv(1, arg, charsmax(arg));

    remove_quotes(arg);



    client_print_color(id, print_chat, "Array Index: %d", ArrayFindString(g_aValues, arg));



    return PLUGIN_HANDLED;

}

It is returning me every time value "-1" instead of array item index.
After some debugging, I tried to pass an exactly value from the Array, it retured -1.

Is this a native bug?

Re: ArrayFindString problem

Probably your ArrayCreate() setup incorrectly, see here.

Re: ArrayFindString problem

better yet show your full test code...

Re: ArrayFindString problem

1) Print all string values in g_aValues cellarray
2) Print the string passed on ArrayFindString (after cleaning)
3) Deduce

Re: ArrayFindString problem

Have you tried using ArrayGetString()? Also, how are you passing the string to the array?

Well, it is correctly seted up, because I've used other Array* functions to debug it.

I already did these ( except third step )

Yes, I used also ArrayGetString and it print out the items found in Array.

Re: ArrayFindString problem

Perhaps you wanna share some more of your code. We're probably not able to help you without further info.

Also, have you tried converting the string into an integer since you're trying to show a number here?

Make sure you destroy the array at plugin_end().

Re: ArrayFindString problem

Show your ArrayCreate(). If that correctly has the appropriate max string length value set then show more code. I tested ArrayFindString() and it worked completely fine.

I haven't tryed to convert string into int, I will try this tomorrow.

Code:

PHP Code:


		
			
/* Sublime AMXX Editor v4.2 */



#include <amxmodx>



#define PLUGIN  "New Plug-In"

#define VERSION "1.0.0-4"

#define AUTHOR  "Author"



new Array:g_aValues

new const g_szList[4][] = 

{

    "Value1",

    "Value type",

    "Other value",

    "Anything else"

}



public plugin_init()

{

    register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)



    register_clcmd("amx_test", "clcmd_test")



    g_aValues = ArrayCreate(48)



    for(new i; i < sizeof(g_szList); i++)

    {

        ArrayPushArray(g_aValues, g_szList[i])

    }

}



public clcmd_test(id)

{

    new arg[48];



       read_argv(1, arg, charsmax(arg));

      remove_quotes(arg);



      client_print_color(id, print_chat, "Array Index: %d", ArrayFindString(g_aValues, arg));



       return PLUGIN_HANDLED;

}



public plugin_end()

{

    ArrayDestroy(g_aValues)

}

This is what I tried so far.

Re: ArrayFindString problem

Code:

ArrayPushArray(g_aValues, g_szList[i])

:arrow:

Code:

ArrayPushString(g_aValues, g_szList[i])

By the way, note that ArrayFindString is case-sensitive.
