Returning 2 strings - letters - 16.08.2011

pawn Code:

stock asd(string[],&string1[],&string2[])//Fail

stock asd(string[],&string1,&string2)//Fail

return string1,string2;//??

I've tried that way and now I have no idea how to do this.
Anyone can help me?

Re: Returning 2 strings - dowster - 16.08.2011

when you use this one

pawn Code:

stock asd(string[],&string1[],&string2[])

are you having a return 1; at the end?

Re: Returning 2 strings - Scenario - 16.08.2011

What is with the & sign before the string names?

pawn Code:

&string1[],&string2[]

Couldn't you just do "string1[]," string[2]?"

not really returning 2 string however you can pass strings through stocks and have them change, here's a quick example

pawn Code:

stock StockPasses2String(&string1[],len1,&string2[],len2)
{
    new TempStringOrSomthing[32] = "I equal nothing important";
        for(new i=0;i<len1;i++)
    {
        string1[i] = TempStringOrSomthing[i];
    }
    TempStringOrSomthing = "I Have Changed To Something Else";
    for(new i=0;i<len2;i++)
    {
        string2[i] = TempStringOrSomthing[i];
    }
}

You can't "return" 2 strings. The only way to achieve anything like this is with cessil's example.

variable cannot be both a reference and an array (variable "string1")

I believe strings do not need to be passed by reference - strings are passed by reference by default.

I don't get what you mean. I'll appreciate it if you explain more.

Just remove the &, it should work as expected.
