How would I pass a method in a methodmap to a native like SMCParser.OnNewSection.set()?

EDIT: I tried via <methodmapname>.<methodname> as well as this.<methodname> but neither work.

A few things:

• The SMCParser methodmap doesn't have an OnNewSection. Did you mean OnEnterSection? Also, you don't call the set method, but rather the syntax is myParser.OnEnterSection = methodnamehere
• You can't pass a native to a call expecting a Function.

You may ask "why?" for the latter.

The short answer:

A native is just the declared interface and not itself a Function.

The long answer:

It has to do with how forwards work. For a private forward or remote-function call to work, you need to have the plugin Handle for the plugin implementing it. Most plugins use the caller of the registration function (SMCParser.OnEnterSection.set's IPluginContext in this case), but a native declaration is compiled into any plugin that uses #include to include the plugin's inc file, not just the plugin implementing it.

1) Thx for correction of Property Name.
2) I know how to call it, I just put it's full native name cause I wanted to.

Now, for your "why", cause I want to "exploit" methodmaps as much as I can cause they work very closely to classes.
And another thing, I was refering to non-native methodmap method.
eg:

PHP Code:

static int a = 5;
methodmap Test
{
    public int LOL()
    {
        return a;
    }
};

The function you just mentioned?

It's implicitly this function:

public int Test.LOL(Test this)

That's how Methodmaps work. They add an implicit first argument named this with the methodmap's type as its type.

I don't know if Methodmaps support what we'd call static methods in C#/Java, which belong to the class itself and not the instance, but this isn't one.

i dont knw how itd pass the object so prolly not possible for nonstatic methods in functions that arent designed for them

I tried making it status, but compiler spit out same error with it expecting a '('. Methodmaps also support static methods(see TopMenu's methodmap).
