Apologies if this has been posted before (the forum could
use a search functiion!). The following code doesn't compile
(gives error "Could not resolve identifier _script"):

int _FindUnusedIID()


{


    int iid;


    for(iid = 0; iid < MAX_TOTAL_INVOKES; iid++) {


        if(_script[iid] == "") {


            return iid;


        }


    }


    return 0 - 1;


}

The following code does:

int _FindUnusedIID()


{


    int iid;


    for(iid = 0; iid < MAX_TOTAL_INVOKES; iid++) {


        if(len(_script[iid]) == 0) {


            return iid;


        }


    }


    return 0 - 1;


}

_script is declared as a global array of strings. Anyone else seen this before?

string comparison cannot be done via ==. You want

int strcmp(string a, string b)

because I dislike the semantics of that function, I always use my own wrapper around it,as follows:

/**


 * A simple case-insensitive string comparison.  


 *


 * Returns true if the two strings are the same.


 */


int equ( string a, string b ) {


	if( !strcmp(toUpper(a),toUpper(b)) ) {


		return 1;


	} else {


		return 0;


	}


}

It *would* be something like that. I looked at the string docs before I posted too. That's what I get for coding in Python for three nights straight.

Thanks, grue.

It's used prominantly in the Sully code.

...speaking of, I should finish that ^_^

What would you call the machine that god used to create the universe?


A Commodore 64.

I have all the answers tonight.

All that just for !strcmp() ... seems a little unnessersary. :D
