Code:

new String:g_sFilePath[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];

BuildPath(Path_SM, g_sFilePath, sizeof(g_sFilePath), "configs/rules.txt"); // this is the csgo/addons/sourcemod/configs/rules.txt

new Handle:fileHandle = OpenFile( g_sFilePath, "r" );

new String:fileLine[256];

while( !IsEndOfFile( fileHandle ) && ReadFileLine( fileHandle, fileLine, sizeof( fileLine ) ) )

{

     TrimString( fileLine );

     PrintToChatAll(fileLine);

}

CloseHandle( fileHandle );

should do the trick

need new syntax.

PHP Code:


		
			
    static char g_sFilePath[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH], fileLine[256];
    BuildPath(Path_SM, g_sFilePath, sizeof(g_sFilePath), "configs/rules.txt");
    Handle fileHandle = OpenFile( g_sFilePath, "r" );

    while(!IsEndOfFile(fileHandle) && ReadFileLine(fileHandle, fileLine, sizeof(fileLine)))
    {
        TrimString(fileLine);
        PrintToChatAll(fileLine);
    }

    delete fileHandle;

I'll go check

Re: Reading and displaying information from a file

Reading lines from a file every time you want to use them is bad practice. You should consider using a global array of strings to store the lines, and use that array later for printing.

Take a look at the way I'm doing it in my Advanced-Filters plugin: https://github.com/FAQU2/Advanced-Fi...ions.sp#L1-L60

Re: Reading and displaying information from a file

as FAQU said something like this should be better

PHP Code:


		
			
char rules[100][258];
public void OnMapStart()
{
    char g_sFilePath[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];
    BuildPath(Path_SM, g_sFilePath, sizeof(g_sFilePath), "configs/rules.txt"); // this is the csgo/addons/sourcemod/configs/rules.txt
    Handle fileHandle = OpenFile( g_sFilePath, "r" );
    char fileLine[256];
    int line = 0;
    while( !IsEndOfFile( fileHandle ) && ReadFileLine( fileHandle, fileLine, sizeof( fileLine ) ) )
    {
         TrimString( fileLine );
         rules[line++] = fileLine;
    }
    CloseHandle( fileHandle );
}
public void OnPluginStart()
{
    RegConsoleCmd("sm_rules", ruls);
}
public Action ruls(int client,int args){
    int linecount = sizeof(rules);
    for (int i = 0; i < linecount; i++){
        PrintToChat(client, rules[i]);
    }

}

my bad ,FAQU already showed a way
