how do you detect if a plugin has failed to load or not loaded when being called from "AskPluginLoad2" forward.

[Powerlord]

If your plugin has a dependency on another plugin, as long as the other plugin's include file is set up properly, and you don't put

PHP Code:

#undef REQUIRE_PLUGIN 


before you include its include file, your plugin should fail to load if its dependency isn't met.

Some plugins do have a "bad" include file. One such plugin is SourceBans, whose include file assumes it's always optional without the other plugin telling it so.

FindPluginByFile and GetPluginStatus should do what you want.

Example code used

PHP Code:

//All Plugins Loaded:
public OnAllPluginsLoaded()
{

    //Handle:
    new Handle:PFind = FindPluginByFile("PluginName.smx");

    //Find:
    if(PFind != INVALID_HANDLE) 
    {

        //Plugin Status:
        if(GetPluginStatus(PFind) != Plugin_Running)
        {

            //Fail State:
            SetFailState("test");
        }
    }

    //Override:
    else
    {

        //Fail State:
        SetFailState("test");
    }
}
