Title: readini variable
Post by: ReVilo on March 30, 2008, 08:15:30 pm

Is there a way to make a variable that is dependent on a readini? So that it has to readini to find out the value of that variable. Is this possible? (Sorry if it's not clear what I'm trying to say >_<)

Yes, by using readini and writeini:

Code: [Select]

!writeini -n filename.ini LABEL value_name x    ;saves the value to filename.ini and rewrites the old one

$readini(filename.ini,LABEL,value_name)    ;returns x

The filename.ini file looks like this:

Code: [Select]

[LABEL]
value_name=x

Hmm, I meant (cause i'm trying to make a banlist command without a constantly refreshing web host) how could I make a variable like %banlist.

If you wish to use a variable instead of plain text inside the $readini identifier, you can.
For example if your ini layout was the following:

Code: [Select]

[section]
bob=hacking
And your script was this:

Code: [Select]

var %banslist = bob
var %test = $readini(filename.ini,section,%banslist)
Then the variable called %test will contain the word "hacking".

I hope thats what your after, if not then please explain exactly what your trying to do.
