Hi all.

If i have 2 plugins, pla and plb, and I want to get a vector a[1..n] as a return value from plb calling the function from pla, how would I do?

Right now i've seen that you can pass both int and float as reference, but not string. I've tryed to pass the vector as argument and then edit the values in plb's function but it doesn't seem to work properly. Also return doesn't seem to work with forwards. In code what i wan't to do is:

pla...
{
new vec[n]
get_info_and_fill_vec[n]_from_plb
}

plb..

public getinfo(...)
{
return_vec(somehow)
}

The ugly method would be to pass each element in the vector as &int arguments, but I would like to avoid that since n can change later.

Pass it as an array, I'm not sure if it supports different data tags though.

If not you'll just have to pass each cell of the vector as one parameter.

"If not you'll just have to pass each cell of the vector as one parameter."

Yeah that was my "bad" solution, but it would be ok if i could pass a non fixed number of arguments to the function. Is infinite arguments supported by pawn? Like

public name(id,a....., numofarg)

or something similiar.

yes:

whatever(id,some_string[],{Float,Sql,Result,_}:...)

OK, thanks alot for your help

Another thing, I noticed that pawn always pass vectors as reference, is this correct?

I think it does for any array in general.
