There's all the files

added you.

there wasn't a timers.inc file in the zip. just timer.inc? have you modified the files at all?

PHP Code:


			
/**
 * Creates a timer associated with a new datapack, and returns the datapack.
 * @note The datapack is automatically freed when the timer ends.
 * @note The position of the datapack is not reset or changed for the timer function.
 *
 * @param interval            Interval from the current game time to execute the given function.
 * @param func                Function to execute once the given interval has elapsed.
 * @param datapack            The newly created datapack is passed though this by-reference 
 *                            parameter to the timer callback function.
 * @param flags                Timer flags.
 * @return                    Handle to the timer object.  You do not need to call CloseHandle().
 */
stock Handle:CreateDataTimer(Float:interval, Timer:func, &Handle:datapack, flags=0)
{
    datapack = CreateDataPack();
    flags |= TIMER_DATA_HNDL_CLOSE;
    return CreateTimer(interval, func, datapack, flags);
}

This is from the actual SM include files. Not sure what is wrong with it atm. If someone has any idea that would help.

Edit:
Changing it to this fixes the error but not sure if that is correct:

PHP Code:


			
stock Handle:CreateDataTimer(Float:interval, func, &Handle:datapack, flags=0)

Also when you remove the Timer:func, the error goes away...

Seriously, don't change SourceMod include files.

Anyway, you'll get that error in CreateDataTimer if you have the wrong signature for the Timer function.

There are only 6ish valid signatures for timer functions (3 old syntax, 3 new syntax). They are:

Code:

public Action:Timer(Handle:timer, Handle:data) { }
public Action:Timer(Handle:timer, any:data) { }
public Action:Timer(Handle:timer) { }
public Action Timer(Handle timer, Handle data) { }
public Action Timer(Handle timer, any data) { }
public Action Timer(Handle timer) { }

There's also this new API variant that should also work because DataPack is a subclass of Handle:

Code:

public Action Timer(Handle timer, DataPack data) { }

Note: Timer should be replaced with the actual timer function name you want to use.

Yep, thats why we were asking the question.

We knew it was wrong to do. Now we at least know there is a timer somewhere which is wrong now. Thanks.

What file would we modify? & What line?

Can you help out a little more?

Zeddy_god · 08-06-2015 , 03:24 Re: Failing to Compile .SP Files?

Bump. Having the same errors. Can anyone help me out? Exactly same compliling errors.

Potato Uno · 08-06-2015 , 10:05 Re: Failing to Compile .SP Files?

It doesn't help us if you don't post the code and the errors from the compiler.

Zeddy_god · 08-06-2015 , 19:17 Re: Failing to Compile .SP Files?

I'm sorry but I'm terrible at coding. But I've tried to compile all the 50 .sps and over half of them have errors. Can someone please compile https://github.com/Zipcore/Timer and post it as a zip. If there's problems posting it here, please add me http://steamcommunity.com/id/bhushanmunde/
Any help will be very appreciated, thanks!
