Looping through lines using y_ini - Tagathron - 02.11.2013

How could you loop through lines in a .ini file,to check if there is a match for something?

For example;let's say you're making a ban ip command,and you save the player's IP into a .ini file when he is banned.
So when he tries to come back in,a function loops through the file checking if there is his IP in there......

You can't, from what I know.

As I know, you're not able to do that, one way is to Load those lines into string variables, and loop through vars :S

Sure you can. y_ini loves name value pairing, so if you have information saved like this in a ban file

ini_load ban file, get player ip, ini_string player ip, isnull check if empty (if not, ban!).

If you save ips like this

you'll need to open the file, loop through each line, and compare each ip if it matches the player ip.
