[Question] Connect to MYSQL in an include - Biesmen - 29.04.2011

I'm working on an include, but I need to connect to MYSQL in that include.
Is it possible to do that?

If yes, how to? Because OnGameModeInit will only get called by the GM itself.

Thanks

Not true.

If you wanted to do it "OnGameModeInit" - why not just hook OnGameModeInit to suit your needs? OR create a stock with no arguments, and just run that in "OnGameModeInit"

eg;

pawn Код:

//In your include
stock MySQL_Connect()
{
     //Connect to sql here
}

//In GM script
public OnGameModeInit()
{
     MySQL_Connect();
     //rest of gminit
}

Just incase you want to use the ALS hooking method (this way you wont need to do anything outside of the include).

Inside the include

pawn Код:

public OnGameModeInit()
{
    // do stuff here above the funcidx function

    if (funcidx("ig_OnGameModeInit") != -1)
        return CallLocalFunction("ig_OnGameModeInit", "");
    return 1;
}

#if defined _ALS_OnGameModeInit
    #undef OnGameModeInit
#else
    #define _ALS_OnGameModeInit
#endif
#define OnGameModeInit ig_OnGameModeInit
forward ig_OnGameModeInit();

After I posted this I found the hooking method, I used that.

Thanks
