Hello,

I have a log file named Player_Reports.txt.Now I want to show last 10 reports of players when admins type /reports
Can someone give me a stock or a function that gives last 10 lines of a log file

last 10 lines means 10 latest reports

THANKS

Propably you need read whole file and count lines then open again and reads only last 10 lines xd

Store the positions of the last ten lines within a file, then use fseek to jump to the first of those ten lines and start reading.

Why not use MySQL? Easiest way ever.

[TheToretto]

Not the easiest but the most effective way, SQL is a whole language apart tho

[GameOvr]

Thanks but can someone give me a stock or a function like

ReadLastLines(const LogFile[])

Search over internet for general logic of file buffer. You then just have to apply that logic in PAWN. It will be a good exercise for you.

GTLS, I found nothing by searching like that

new File:rflh = fopen("reports.txt", io_read);
if(rflh)
{
    new lines, id, str[256];
    while(fread(rflh, str))
    {
        lines++;
    }
    id = lines - 10;
    lines = 0;
    fseek(rflh);
    while(fread(rflh, str))
    {
        if(++lines <= id) continue;
        SendClientMessage(playerid, -1, str);
    }
    fclose(rflh);
}

1 example:-

I may ask a question Actually does number of registered players differs according to players? Answer is NO SO don't make the var like this, new Number_Of_Registered[MAX_PLAYERS]; Just do this, new Number_Of_Registered; ========================================= If it was helpful...You also help me to increase my REPS...

Plz dont misunderstand others anyway thanks for the offensive reply

Thanks bro I'll try that if you can plz explain what have you done

you should probably try SQL. here's an example of how simple it'd be if you wanted to do it that way.

Код:

mysql_tquery(sqlhandle, "SELECT * FROM `reports` LIMIT 10", "OnPlayerViewReports", "d", playerid);

forward OnPlayerViewReports(playerid);
public OnPlayerViewReports(playerid)
{
// yada yada
}

this is just a brief example.

Query should be,

Код:

mysql_tquery(sqlhandle, "SELECT * FROM `reports` ORDER BY `date` DESC LIMIT 10 ", "OnPlayerViewReports", "d", playerid);
