[Solved] Integer parameter passed to stock function

Boonie · **Author**

I am trying to get an integer (1 or 0) from a function, and use it in another, but I cannot get it to work. I'm not sure if I have the syntax correct or not. I tried using int: {1} but that didnt work, I also tried view_as<int>(1) and that didn't work either. Any ideas?

PHP Code:


			
public Action:Hook_Start(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast) {
    CreateZone(Float: { 1732.0, -2812.0, -31.0 }, Float: { -30.0, -50.0, -100.0 }, Float: { 30.0, 50.0, 100.0 }, { 1 } );
}

stock CreateZone(Float:position[3], Float:minbounds[3], Float:maxbounds[3], numbers[]) {
    // snip //
    DispatchKeyValue(entbuild, "AllowSentry", numbers);
    // snip //
}

Your passing an int array to a method expecting a string value.

You still need to convert it to a string to pass to DispatchKeyValue as it expects:
first param: ent index(typed int)
2nd: string for keyvalue name
3rd: string for value

Im not quite sure how I would convert the int to a string, would it be something like this?

PHP Code:


			
public Action:Hook_Start(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast) {
    CreateZone(Float: { 1732.0, -2812.0, -31.0 }, Float: { -30.0, -50.0, -100.0 }, Float: { 30.0, 50.0, 100.0 }, 1);
}

stock CreateZone(Float:position[3], Float:minbounds[3], Float:maxbounds[3], numbers) {
    // snip //
    new String:bsent[1] = numbers;
    DispatchKeyValue(entbuild, "AllowSentry", bsent);
    // snip //
}

I know I can get it working with using a string, like below, but I would like to use 1 & 0 instead of Dec.

PHP Code:


			
public Action:Hook_Start(Handle:event, const String:name[], bool:dontBroadcast) {
    CreateZone(Float: { 1732.0, -2812.0, -31.0 }, Float: { -30.0, -50.0, -100.0 }, Float: { 30.0, 50.0, 100.0 }, String: { 49 });
}

stock CreateZone(Float:position[3], Float:minbounds[3], Float:maxbounds[3], String:numbers[2]) {
    // snip //
    DispatchKeyValue(entbuild, "AllowSentry", numbers);
    // snip //
}

umbers);

new String:n[8];
IntToString(numbers, n, sizeof(n));

If it's a new plugin I recommand you to use the new syntax.

I didn't know there was an IntToString, but I am learning. Anyways, this worked great, thanks.

This is a new plugin, and I made sure it was in the new syntax.

Always search the API (https://sm.alliedmods.net/new-api/) to see if there's a function that can do what you want.

It's not in the new syntax. You're using old syntax code. To enforce new syntax, add:

PHP Code:


			
#pragma semicolon 1 // you should have this anyway
#pragma newdecls required

BELOW your #include file statements, and then it will complain if you use old syntax.

PHP Code:


			
stock void CreateZone(float position[3], float minbounds[3], float maxbounds[3], int number)
{
    // snip //
    DispatchKeyValue(entbuild, "AllowSentry", numbers);
    // snip //
}

Example of what your stock must look like in new syntax

Edit: And because I love sourcepawn I did you other stock too

PHP Code:


			
public Action Hook_Start(handle event, const char[] name, bool dontBroadcast)
{
    CreateZone(float { 1732.0, -2812.0, -31.0 }, float { -30.0, -50.0, -100.0 }, float { 30.0, 50.0, 100.0 },int 1);//idk if int is need
}
