weird bug [arrays]

well, it's odd.

Here's an array thing

HTML Code:

function onCreated() 

{

  temp.array = { {"Heya", "Fish"}, {"hiya", "Bull"} };

  temp.search = {"Heya", "Fish"};

  echo(temp.array.index(temp.search));

}

However, it'd return a negative number, indicating that it can't be found!
Although, if I am to do this

HTML Code:

function onCreated() 

{

  temp.array = { {"Heya", "Fish"}, {"hiya", "Bull"} };

  temp.search = {"Heya", "Fish"};

  echo(temp.array.index((@ temp.search)));

}

It'll give the correct array index... strange but true I must say

Dynamic variables are fun.

It seems that var.index() only accepts strings as its parameter, so it's no bug.

Inverness: I don't think you caught what was being pointed out... :confused:

PHP Code:


		
			
function onCreated() 
{
  temp.array = { {"Heya", "Fish"}, {"hiya", "Bull"} };
  temp.search = {"Heya", "Fish"};
  echo(temp.array.index( @temp.search ) );
}

Here you go, love.

This is just because you're interpreting the object as it's input. There was something about Stefan claiming this a while ago. It was in one of the threads.... I'll see if I can find it.

You can't compare arrays with the == operator, that's why index() is not working with arrays either. If you convert it to string then it's comparing each array member with a string comparison and is return the wished index. This can also help if you want to find an object in an array with the same name, just give @object or object.name as parameter to the index() function.

I was having issues with simple scripts not working because I didn't put a delimiter (@) in a place where it doesn't need to be.
Such As
player.chat = serverr.chat;
Would Have To Be
player.chat = @serverr.chat;
(Just an example - not necessarily one script with issues.)
