Hello everyone,

I downloaded the source of that xSlap! plug-in because we are allowed to tweak it. I am trying to make it like this:

TWDman slaps %CONTACTNAME% around a bit with a large trout.

I tried this first with just "(!N)" but then Plus! doesnt convert it to the contactname. Then I saw in the Header some Control Characters and thats why I tried to put an extra code-line in the header:

const char* sCCContactName  = "(!N)";

But it doesnt make any sence.

Who can help me??

Thanks!!!


[EDIT] mmm i was thinking: maybe this isn't possible yet. Patchou, tell me: is this possible? If not, could you please add it to you next Plus!API??[/EDIT]

[EDIT2]when i type /me (!N) in the conversation windows it works, but not when i do it with the plug-in [/EDIT2]

did you try sCCContactName? thats the constant which is (!N) ...

yes I tried that. Sorry I thougt you guys would understand that. SORRY !!!! Yes I tried sCCContactName but then I got:

TWDman slaps (!N) around a bit with a large trout.

I'm starting to get this...
It seems that the order of precedence is to run all the plugins after the standard messenger plus functions, effectively stopping us from using any of the flags that are processed on sending, only on recieving.
So here's an official request: Maybe in the next version of the SDK we could have the ability to either choose to run plugins before the standard functions, or to call the standard ones from within the function with a call like stdParseCommand(const char*sCommand, const char* sCommandArg, PLUGIN_PARAM* pParam, char* sResult).
It could be a bit more trouble in the code (although it should be okay), but it would give people *much* more freedom with their plugins.

i think that with this : PLUGIN_PARAM* pParam u can get the name of who had genereted the action but with a session code before.

U can get this  <sessioncode><nickname>

you can use the oConversationWnd argument of the parsecommand and parsetag functions

use it like this

oConversationWnd.contacts(0).friendlyname

in vb at least

you should use the oconversationwnd as a MessengerAPI.IMessengerConversationWnd interface

good luck

Thanks DJ for writing this code. I will test it after I come back from my holiday in Turkey!

Thanks

TWDman, can you make it that i uses the custom name you specified?
