control <idx> <proc> not working [fixed] - bad c

nihaopaul1 · Post by **nihaopaul1** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 4:54 am

control $idx script_name
Tcl error: wrong # args: should be "control handle idx arg"

the documents only talk about control idx proc in eggdrop 1.6.17

Code: Select all

proc temp {name server port} {
        set idx [connect $server $port]
        send_tochan "[idx2hand $idx]"
        control [idx2hand $idx] $idx temp_sock #returns idx temp_sock
        #control $idx temp_sock #return error: Tcl error: wrong # args: should be "control handle idx arg"
}
proc temp_sock {handle idx arg} {
        send_tochan "$handle $idx $arg"
        return 0
}

all i want is to assign the output to a proc, is this a problem in the script or with eggdrop? anyhelp would be appriciated

i do know that information is waiting on the socket

when i try i get: Tcl error: invalid idx

what i did find out is that the following code is right but i had to downgrade to eggdrop 1.6.16 for it to work! strange but true.

Code: Select all

proc temp {name server port} {
        set idx [connect $server $port]
        control $idx temp_sock
}
proc temp_sock {idx arg} {
        if { [lindex $arg 0] eq "PING" } { putidx $idx "PONG [lindex $arg 1]" }
        return 0
}

eggdrop 1.6.17 reports an error

take a wild guess

falcon69 · Post by **falcon69** » Sat Aug 13, 2005 5:02 am

in a pm? in the irc channel? cuz those didnt come back w/ anything

demond · Post by **demond** » Sat Aug 13, 2005 5:06 am

well, try to take an educated guess then... knowing that the command set has to have a dot in front of it, what's the first and obvious destination candidate place for that command that comes to mind?

falcon69 · Post by **falcon69** » Sat Aug 13, 2005 5:09 am

well my guess would be the irc channel..but im a newbie....

wrong

may I kindly recommend you get back to reading eggdrop docs and online help system, also this website's resources (I somehow suspect that you haven't read those at all); you actually have way to go before trying to fix scripts, you need to learn the basics of using eggdrop first
