Call function with STRING or function array?

hi

i have a problem as always

I just want to know if it is possible to have function arrays. Cause i want to call function from a spell list or better id. I send an id and the correct spell function is started.

Instead of


i want something like


Is it possible in any way?

What do you want to do?! Neither of your examples is an array of function pointers.
While basically there is no problem having a bunch of pointers in an array which points to functions (thats what you do when you call a function, you jump to another code address and continue execution from there), you seem to have no idea so you might want to stick with something else.

Is this what you're looking for?

yes it is. but it´s not working. What i mean is instead of writing Heal(...) i want to for example take a string that hold "Heal" inside and place that string before the (...)

STRING* spell_id = "Heal";

spell_id(...)

But that doesnt work.

Obviously it does not. Its a string, not a function
Look into saturnus link, it will help you.

I got it. Never done it before with function pointers. That was easy just didnt understand what exactly i have to write.

Thanks

Ok another problem. If i´m writing

engine_getscript("Heal");

The spell is found.

If i use a STRING that contains "Heal" it´s not finding anything. I want something like this. Maybe it has to be a char? But that also didnt work.

STRING* spell_type = "Heal";
engine_getscript(spell_type);

STRING* spell_type = "Heal";
change to
STRING* spell_type = str_create("Heal");

Are you sure? I cant test it at the moment but if i use the first method its a string with content.

I think str_create would be for String Arrays like..

STRING* spell_type[3];
spell_type[0] = str_create("Heal");
spell_type[1] = str_create("Fire");
spell_type[2] = str_create("Ice");

But thats the same cause if i give out my string with error(spell_type) it says correctly Heal.

Maybe it needs another input in the brackets?

eedit: ok i got it

engine_getscript(_chr(spell_type));

made it
