y_ini problems. - Toni - 23.11.2010

Hello there,

I've decided to make one more script before I actually think on deciding to leave SA:MP or not.

------

I am trying to use y_ini for file writing, but it is very confusing to me. I already sent a PM to ******, waiting for a reply, but just in case he doesn't actually respond I'll just ask here.

Well, I need help on finding if a file exists or not, and I don't know how.

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
     format(str, sizeof(str), "/ZeusAdmin/Accounts/%s.ini", pName(playerid));
     return 1;
}

Sadly, that's all I have so far. I don't know what function to use to check if the player's file exists or not.

I really do wish there was a wiki page on this file writing / reading system.

I'm not sure what to do, use fexist, or use a function inside y_ini (hopefully).

pawn Code:

public OnPlayerConnect(playerid)
{
    format(str, sizeof(str), "/ZeusAdmin/Accounts/%s.ini", pName(playerid));
    new INI:handler = INI_Open(str);
    if(.....)
    return 1;
}

That is what I am thinking of, but the if statement is stumping me. I can't figure what to 'if' about, since there is no actual function to check if the file exists.

Please do help,

The Toni

Use ParseFile, an example can be found on page 15 of y_ini's topic.

That's not exactly what I meant, all I want right now is to find a way if the file exists or not.

i.e if(!dini_Exist(str)) return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "This nick is not registered!");

pawn Code:

if(!fexist(str))
{
    return SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFF0000FF, "This nick is not registered!");
}
else
{
// File does exist
}

Yes, but is there any way I can use y_ini to do it? I rather not get confused by using 2 file systems.
