Hello Alliedmodders!

I was wondering...

PHP Code:

// plugin1.amxx
public plugin_natives()
{
    register_native("test_nat", "test_nat_handle", 1)
    
}

public test_nat_handle( )
{
    // here i need plugin2.amxx id yet we dont know what is plugin name 
    // and ohter plugins can call this native as well
}

plugin2.amxx
native test_nat()
public plugin_init()
{
      test_nat()
} 


What i wish to do is a native something like this:

PHP Code:

mything( function_name[] ) // that function will be called when something happens 


i dont want to register MultiForward since the function should be only for that plugin what calls the mything.

It is pretty annoying to manually call CreateOneForward each time i wish to use costom functions.
Basically i want to create function like set_task is.


Also if it is impossible to do with pawn then i can also create module but i also don't know how to catch plugin id in module.


there is one way i know but then i have to use one param to pass plugin id.
function will be something like this:

PHP Code:

mything( get_plugin(), "my_returnfunc" )
// just found out that get_plugin() does not work that way as i thought.
// i thought it would return correct plugin id... nice fail tho... 


Well, that is one way but i really wish that there's a other way so i can check plugin id in native handle instead of getting plugin id in that plugin. It just that the format of function looks ugly and wasting one param for that, i find it terrible.

Thanks!

Edit:
Here's one terrible stock i made:

PHP Code:

stock find_func( funcname[], &plugin_id )
{
    new r
    for( new a = 0; a < get_pluginsnum(); a++  )
    {
        r = get_func_id(funcname, a)
        if( r != -1 ) 
        {
            plugin_id = a
            return r
        }
    }
    return -1
} 


This will get func id and plugin id but fails when 2 plugins share same function name.
Also its a kind of stock i want to call only one time for each function.

If however i wish to make set_task like function i then need to store the function and plugin index somewhere i can get it fast without calling the stock again and it will become bit complicated then.

Describe this "set_task-like" function.

Simple solution: Don't use style 1 natives.

Deja vu! . . . I'm sure we've had this discussion before. . .

the thing is that i have never worked with natives style 0, i didin't know that it passes plugins id.
Thanks for the hint, problem solved!
