Re: native functions that returns arrays

[杨标(Vinge)]

Hi Alex! Sorry that I can't get it. Can you talk about it with more detail.
Without pointer operations, How can I get the data in the allocated
memory through the address returned to pawn?
Shouled I defina a native function to read wirte the memory like:
cell nativeArrayRead(address, index)
cell nativeArrayWrite(address,index,value)
some thing like that?

native functions that returns arrays

PAWN doesn't have pointers, but it does have addresses. I suspect you
allocate memory on the heap then return that address as a single cell from
the native.

OK, I've managed to produce a minimal test case:

#pragma tabsize 4
#pragma semicolon 1
#pragma ctrlchar '\\'

stock SomeFunction()
{
#if defined __COMPILER_SECOND_PASS
for (new loop = 1; loop; loop = (loop ? 0 : 1))
#endif
{
}
return 0;
}

main()
{
return SomeFunction() ? 0 : 1;
}

static stock __COMPILER_SECOND_PASS() {}

When I compile this with 3.2.3664 it gives excess heap allocations on the
final "return" of the code. When I compile this with 4.0.4733 I get:

Assertion Failed: result, function hier13, file sc3.c, line 1197.
ABNORMAL TERMINATION

Which does seem to confirm that there is a bug in heap allocation somewhere
and that it still exists. I don't have any other compilers compiled on
which to test.

Actually, you don't even need the loop:

new gVar;

stock SomeFunction()
{
#if defined main
gVar = (gVar ? 0 : 1);
#endif
return 0;
}

main()
{
return SomeFunction() ? 0 : 1;
}

OK, I don't know sorry.  I was playing about with this but it didn't work as I thought it did (you might have better luck):

/*
static cell AMX_NATIVE_CALL
    n_ArrRet(AMX * amx, cell * params)
{
    cell
        pawnRet;
    cell
        data[10] = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9};
    amx_PushArray(amx, &pawnRet, 0, data, sizeof (data) / sizeof (cell));
    return pawnRet;
}
*/

native [10]ArrRet();

#include <a_samp>

main()
{
    new
        a[10];
    a = ArrRet();
    Func(a);
}

Func(arr[], s = sizeof (arr))
{
    for (new i = 0; i != s; ++i)
    {
        printf("arr[%d] = %d", i, arr[i]);
    }
}
