Wc won't recognize my local variables

06-06-2004, 04:52 AM

ok, i am making a voting system heavily based on Lord Vexorians InputMsgI function, this code is what i have come up with but when i try to save warcraft doesn't recognize me declaring my local variables, insetad it says "expected name"
for all of them except for the first two.(better explination in the code its self) can any one tell my why it is doing this?

Code:

function DialogHide takes nothing returns nothing
  call DialogDisplayBJ( false, udg_Dialog[GetPlayerId(GetTriggerPlayer())], GetTriggerPlayer() )
endfunction

function Trig_Voting_System_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
 local dialog array prompt
 local trigger array trig
 local string array button [color=DarkRed]<--- here down it doesn't recognize my variables.[/color]
 local integer n=0
 local integer i=0
 local integer u = 0
 local real x = 0
 local integer bindx = 1
 local integer result=0
 local trigger counter = CreateTrigger()
set button[1] = "Noobie"
set button[2] = "Trainee"
set button[3] = "Normal"
set button[4] = "Gosu"
set button[5] = "UberGosu"
loop
 exitwhen u>4
   if GetPlayerSlotState(Player(u)) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING then
    set prompt[u] = DialogCreate()   
    call DialogSetMessage( prompt[u], "Vote for Difficulty" )
    set trig[u] = CreateTrigger()
    call TriggerRegisterDialogEvent( trig[u], prompt[u] )
    call TriggerAddAction( trig[u], function DialogHide )     
    loop
        exitwhen bindx>5
            set trig[VoteNum(u+2,bindx)] = CreateTrigger()
            call TriggerRegisterDialogButtonEvent( trig[VoteNum(u+2, bindx)], DialogAddButton( prompt[u], button[bindx] ) )
        set bindx=bindx+1
    endloop
    call DialogDisplay( Player(u), prompt[u], true)
 endif
 set u = u + 1
endloop
set u = 0

call StartTimerBJ( udg_difficulty_timer, false, 20.00 )
call TriggerRegisterTimerExpireEventBJ( counter, udg_difficulty_timer )

loop 
   exitwhen u>4 or GetTriggerEvalCount(counter)>1
    loop
        exitwhen GetTriggerEvalCount(trig[u]) > 0 or GetPlayerSlotState(Player(u)) != PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING or GetTriggerEvalCount(counter)>1
        call TriggerSleepAction(0)
    endloop
    set u = u + 1
endloop

    set i=0
loop
   exitwhen i>3
    call DialogClear(prompt[i])
    call DialogDestroy(prompt[i])
    set prompt[i]=null
    set i = i + 1
   endloop
    set i = 0
set n = 0
 loop
  exitwhen n>3
   if GetPlayerSlotState(Player(n)) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING then
    loop
        exitwhen i>5
        if GetTriggerEvalCount(trig[VoteNum(n+2,i)]) > 0 then
            set result = result + i
        endif
        call DestroyTrigger(trig[i])
        set trig[i] = null
        set i=i+1
    endloop
    set x = x + 1
   endif
  endloop
 set x = I2R(i)/x
    if x < 2.00 then
        call UberDisp(0.52, -1.00, 5.00, "|c0080ffffNoobie|r difficulty has been chosen!!")
        set udg_attacker_number = ( udg_attacker_number - 15 )
    elseif x < 3 then
            call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), "TRIGSTR_682" )

Vidstige

It gets totally confused by your call:

Code:

DialogAddButton( prompt[u], button[bindx])

The problem is that the above line are not compatible with:

Code:

 native DialogAddButton takes dialog whichDialog, string buttonText, integer hotkey returns button

I therefore suggest that you also pass it the hotkey parameter.

How did I find this out then? I used JEdit 1.5, which ran the pjass syntax checker for me, which found the call to DialogAddButtan. I then asked JEdit to go and find the definition of the DialogAddButton for me. :>

fugly	lol wow, i did exactly the same thing, but it still won't recognize my local variable...

Narwanza	You can't have names for something that are extensions of handle. Button is an extension of handle, so what you did is almost exatly identical to this line of code. Code: local integer string = 5 That isn't legal because string is a primitivie type so you can't have a variable named string.
