Trouble Overwriting A String - ReneG - 21.05.2012

I have never used strmid until now, and I'm not sure if I'm using it correctly.

pawn Код:

WP_Hash(wpHash, 129, inputtext); // I hash it
printf("Booboo Test: %s", wpHash); // It prints it
strmid(PlayerInfo[playerid][pKey], wpHash, 0, sizeof(wpHash)); // Idk what I'm doing
printf("Hope-fucking-ly: %s", PlayerInfo[playerid][pKey]); // It prints nothing.

I'm trying to extract all the characters from the Whirlpool hashed inputtext into the player's password variable. Before you ask, yes, pKey is exactly 129 cells.

Server console printed this.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

stock cutstring(string[],myLENofSTRING )

new tmp,out[129];
tmp = myLENofSTRING ; //END OF STR
strmid(out, string, 0, tmp);
return out;
}

I think this will help you to understand.

Thank you for your reply, but that is exactly what I'm doing.

pawn Код:

new
    wpHash[129],
    pKey[MAX_PLAYERS][129]
;
WP_Hash(wpHash, 129, inputtext);
strmid(pKey, wpHash, 0, sizeof(wpHash));

EDIT: I'll try to temporarily use that stock, and see if it gets me anywhere.

EDIT 2: Wow, I used the stock, and it worked perfectly. But I don't see a difference in.

pawn Код:

strmid(PlayerInfo[playerid][pKey], wpHash, 0, sizeof(wpHash));

Than I do with

pawn Код:

PlayerInfo[playerid][pKey] = cutstring(wpHash, 129);
stock cutstring(string[], length )
{
    new tmp, out[129];
    tmp = length; //END OF STR
    strmid(out, string, 0, tmp);
    return out;
}

You use sizeof(wpHash) and this return size in reference not in integer like strmid wants i hit a head few time about this.
