In my system I had the need to create a

pawn Код:

new string[2500];

string...

After the code, I want that string to disappear from memory to free space, how can I do that? What default instruction/function do I have to use?

[robintjeh]

Uhhm... wouldn't it be enough just to empty the string?

[IstuntmanI]

After you used that string use

Код:

string[ 0 ] = EOS;

Thanks to both

It automatically gets deallocated when the code block it is in is finished, like when you return from the function you use it in. Thats the system behind the stack.

    for(new i; i < sizeof(GTA_VehicleNames); i++)
    {
        format(str2, 51, GTA_VehicleNames[i]);
        format(string, 2500, "%s%s\n", string, str2);
    }
    ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, DIALOG_VEH_SELECT, DIALOG_STYLE_LIST, "Vehicles:", string, "OK", "Cancel");

If I don't use a string of 2500 bytes, how can I put all the vehicle names into the dialog? This way was tested and it worked, but I'm not sure if it's the best way.

Do you mean something like this?:

pawn Код:

#define GTAVehicles "Landstalker\nBravura\nBuffalo\nLinerunner\nPerrenial\nSentinel\nDumper" // ... To 200 more vehicle names

Thanks, that's a great idea

pawn Код:

new vehicle_string[2500];

public OnFilterScriptInit()
{
    new str2[51];
    for(new i; i < sizeof(GTA_VehicleNames); i++)
    {
        format(str2, 51, GTA_VehicleNames[i]);
        format(vehicle_string, 2500, "%s%s\n", vehicle_string, str2);
    }
    return 1;
}

stock VehicleSpawner(playerid)
{
    ShowPlayerDialog(playerid, DIALOG_VEH_SELECT, DIALOG_STYLE_LIST, "Vehicles:", vehicle_string, "OK", "Cancel");
    return 1;
}

It can be seprated by '\', for example i used
