Namechecking, beginner question

I made my first plugin after reading some wiki, but its not working (but listed at sm plugins list).
It's supposed to write in console if client have specified string in nickname.
What I'm doing wrong?

Code:

#include <sourcemod>

#include <string>



public void OnPluginStart()

{

        PrintToServer("Nick checker enabled!");

}



public onClientConnected(client){

        char clientName[32];

        GetClientName(client, clientName, 32);

        if(StrContains(clientName, "test", false)){

                PrintToServer("%s don't have test", clientName);

        }

        else{

                PrintToServer("%s have test", clientName);

        }

}

Re: Namechecking, beginner question

StrContains() doesn't return true/false, i think i remember it used to, it returns the position in the string where the substring is located or -1 if it didn't find it.
So

Code:

if(StrContains(clientName, "test", false) != -1){

is what you need

Re: Namechecking, beginner question

I don't want equal strings, just one string need to contain the second one, but I don't have "Nick checker enabled!", "%s don't have test" or "%s have test" at server console.

#edit
@up
ty, im checking it

#edit2

It never did in SP.
I think it is true for some other languages/frameworks though (C#, Java?).

Re: Namechecking, beginner question

string inc

Code:

/**

 * Tests whether a string is found inside another string.

 *

 * @param str                        String to search in.

 * @param substr                Substring to find inside the original string.

 * @param caseSensitive        If true (default), search is case sensitive.

 *                                                If false, search is case insensitive.

 * @return                                -1 on failure (no match found). Any other value

 *                                                indicates a position in the string where the match starts.

 */

native StrContains(const String:str[], const String:substr[], bool:caseSensitive=true);

Position is >0 so its probably true in bool anyway :P

but I still have the problem :(

Code:

#include <sourcemod>

#include <string>



public Plugin myinfo =

{

        name = "test",

        author = "test",

        description = "My first plugin ever",

        version = "1.0",

        url = "http://www.sourcemod.net/"

}



public void OnPluginStart()

{

        PrintToServer("Nick checker enabled!");

}



public onClientConnected(client){

        char clientName[32];

        GetClientName(client, clientName, 32);

        if(StrContains(clientName, "test", false) != -1){

                PrintToServer("%s don't have test", clientName);

        }

        else{

                PrintToServer("%s have test", clientName);

        }

}

i dont have any text in console

Re: Namechecking, beginner question

OnClientConnected, with a capital O

Actually no, it's >= 0. So if the string starts with the substring then it will return 0 (which it would see as false).

Do you have any text in your error logs?

@Miu

That was so stupid from me, thanks!

Re: Namechecking, beginner question

On a side note, the %N format specifier is all you need most of the time instead of GetClientName().

PHP Code:


		
			
PrintToChat(client, "Your name is %N", client)
