File reading function - wups - 30.09.2010

I can't manage to make a function, that finds "[]=" in the file and removes that line. Can somebody help me? Bcz my people script files are bugged, and i don't want to fix 20k files by hand thanks.

Re: File reading function - Scenario - 30.09.2010

You could use CTRL+H if you open the files in PAWNO... Although, you said you didn't want to do it manually. Another reason MySQL is 10x better.

Re: File reading function - wups - 30.09.2010

Yes, im converting my files to MySQL this weekend. But i still need to fix this.

Re: File reading function - Scenario - 30.09.2010

Why spend time to fix this, if you're already converting? Think about it.

Re: File reading function - wups - 30.09.2010

I will make
pawn Код:
if(fexist(file) && mysql_num_rows == 0) INSERT .....
Because the reader is not reading the file if it finds "[]="

Use this, just wrote it, java rulez

Usage: download, unzip, use cmd to go to the folder you downloaded it to and run:

Код:
java LineRemover "full path to the directory" "start of the line to remove" "only short info=1/0"
(with the "", only 1 or 0 for the last param
it checks all files in the specified directory for lines starting with the specified string and removes them


BUGS ARE POSSIBLE, JUST WROTE IT IN A FEW MINUTES. SO COPY THE DIRECTORY FIRST AND USE THE PROGRAM ON THE COPY ONLY TO PREVENT LOSS OF DATA IF SOMETHING FAILS. I DO NOT GUARANTEE FOR BUGLESS FUNCTION.


So, i hope it helps you, pawn would be too slow to do this for thousands of files. You can only use this, if you have direct access to the files/server of course.
And at last: no problem if you do not need it/cant use it, i was just bored and wanted to code something with java again, and it might help someone else then

Thanks a lot! So, i copy this to my scriptfiles on linux, and on putty i write this?
Код:
 java LineRemover "/root/samp03svr/scriptfiles/user/" "[]=" "1"
Btw. i planned to do this on player connect
Dah, i have no java

Re: File reading function - Mauzen - 30.09.2010

Oops, i twisted the "detail info", it should be called "short info", so 1 turns the additional info off.
You cant really use it in a pawn script, would only be possible to embed it in a plugin
it is just a small standalone tool, that you run by hand from the linux/windows console.

Linux without java? But ok, it isnt really needed for a normal server^^
