EX Vars 0.1 - Set PVars by a web content [SAMP 0.3b] - Executi0n - 11.08.2010

Hello people

since the 0.3b released, I decided to make a little include which is kinda helpful (sometimes).

Before I start explaining about this include, check this link: https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/HTTP, thanks to wiki, all the include content is from there. (EX is a shortcut of my nickname Executi0n)

Functions

EX_SetPVarString(id, varname[], url[])
EX_SetPVarInt(id, varname[], url[])
EX_SetPVarFloat(id, varname[], url[])

ID - the ID of the player you would like to change his PVar.
varname - The PVar's name of the ID (string)
url - The URL to "grab" a content and replace the PVar with it (string)

Example of usage
It's very easy actually

OnPlayerConnect:

pawn Code:

SetPVarString(playerid, "ThisIsMyName", "Nothing changed yet");

OnPlayerCommandText:

pawn Code:

if(strcmp(cmd, "/changeit", true) == 0) 
    {
        EX_SetPVarString(playerid, "ThisIsMyName", "www.killerchutney.com/hello.txt")
        return 1;
    }

pawn Code:

if(strcmp(cmd, "/check", true) == 0) 
    {
        new str[256];
        GetPVarString(playerid, "ThisIsMyName", str, 256);
        SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFF, str);
        return 1;
    }

After you'll do /changeit, the PVar (ThisIsMyName) you've selected to change will be changed to the content of the website (www.killerchutney.com/hello.txt)

Of course you may use it in timers and wherever you want. it's useful for the ones who want to control their server through a website, and can easily change a player var.

pity i don't understand the use of HTTP function

but it could be used for a playername logger or something
