Detecting armor type

Is there a method to retrieve the armor type of a unit? Like if a unit has, say lava armor, I want it to deal x amount of damage of damage type lava via triggers.

e.g.
If ("get armortype of u" == "lava_armor") then
"deal lava_damage"...etc etc

Just curious

No.

But Armor Types are static so they will never change. You COULD setup a table of Unit Types to Armor Types then lookup the table of the unit type id.

This is alot of work.

You know what would be awesome? A system that extracts the static unchangable information on unit types/abilities/etc and provides access to a table in Jass automatically. Hmm

check site downloads there is system for this.

Doesn't JassNewGen have this? WE Warlock had something similar, and JassNewGen pretty much has all the old features of WE Warlock + some more.

An easy way to do this (unless there's a system for it), is to make a dummy ability that won't show on the command card for each armor-type. Add the appropriate ability to each unit, then you can check for that.
