Help me skip a parameter! - DuyDang2412 - 23.07.2017

Hi guys, I want to skip parameter 'color' in this function because it's optional so I don't want to set it to COLOR_YELLOW again. I just set it to another color when I need.

PHP код:



SendAdminAlert(color = COLOR_YELLOW, message[])

{

    foreach(new i: Player)

    {

        if(!Character[i][Admin]) continue;

        Scm(i, color, message);

    }

    return 1;

}

Please help me. Thanks in advanced.

You can change the parameters order, as OneDay said, or you can call your function like this:

PHP код:



OnPlayerConnect(playerid)

{

    SendAdminAlert(.message="A player joined the server.");

    return 1;

}

Why

Quote:

SendAdminAlert(.message="A player joined the server.");

But not

Quote:

SendAdminAlert("A player joined the server.");

Because "A player joined the server." is passed as the first parameter by default, unless otherwise specified.
That's why you use .message="..".

A better example is this

PHP код:



CreateVehicle(vehicletype, Float:x, Float:y, Float:z, Float:rotation, color1, color2, respawn_delay, addsiren=0);

In this function you first place the vehicletype, then x, y, z, a, etc..
If you want to change the parameters order you simply can do this:

PHP код:



CreateVehicle(.z=3.0, .x=0.0, .y=15.0, .vehicletype=411, etc..);

And it will spawn an infernus (model 411) at X: 0.0, Y: 15.0, Z: 3.0

But in your case it is better to just swap the function arguments so the function will look like this

PHP код:



SendAdminAlert(message[], color = COLOR_YELLOW) 

{ 

    foreach(new i: Player) 

    { 

        if(!Character[i][Admin]) continue; 

        Scm(i, color, message); 

    } 

    return 1; 

}

The first parameter will be the message (it's required) and the second one will be the color (which if not specified, it will be by default COLOR_YELLOW)
