Title: LUA 5 scripts for DCH++
Post by: Saivert on 21 April, 2005, 22:33:11
I'm missing a topic for DCH++ and LUA 5 scripts so I though I create one here.

I want this thread to be a place where people can discuss how to rewrite LUA 4/5 scripts for PtokaX so they work in DCH++.

NOTE: DCH++ does not have native support for LUA language but uses a LuaScript plugin for it.

PtokaX and DCH are not using the same functions that lua uses in the scripts to interact with the hubsoft. ( different API ). so it is impossible as far as i know to write a complex script or heavily-depended-on-API script that runs on both.
also please refer to the dch++ forum (http://dchpp.freebb.com/).. I wish you better luck there

actually, DCH++ supports the getHubVersion() function returning hubname,hubversion. so you could build a wrapper and write compatible scripts, as long as you only need features that both hubs provide.

Quote[06:42:03] +lua a,b = getHubVersion() ; dchpp.getClient("Sedulus"):hubMessage(a..","..b)
[06:42:03] DCH++,1

Does PtokaX support getHubVersion() too?

You mean that I can write something like this:

Code Select
a,b = getHubVersion()
if a == "DCH++" then
  --do DCH++ stuff here...
else
  --do PtokaX stuff here...
end

Or one can write a PtokaX layer into the LuaScript plugin (or as a new plugin based on LuaScript) that makes PtokaX scripts run on DCH++ unmodified. PtokaX LUA scripts could then be loaded in it's own context.

Here's my idea of a LuaScript.xml fragement:

no PtokaX dont support getHubVersion()
but that helps the situation too..
Code Select
function hubIsPtokaX()
if pcall(getHubVersion()) then
return nil;
end;
return true
end

once again .. this forum couldn't care less imo... it is about PtokaX .. go to DCH++ forum to discuss this.

end

I'd go with:
Code Select
if getHubVersion and getHubVersion() == "DCH++" then
  // dch++
else
  // fallback, assume ptokax
end
it would be nice if ptokax did support getHubVersion though...

Code Select
if getHubVersion and getHubVersion() == "DCH++" then
function dchpp.userConnected( client )
client:hubMessage( "http://www.ptokax.org <---------Click Here")
end
else
OpConnected = NewUserConnected
function NewUserConnected(curUser)
curUser.SendData(" You Saw the Light ! ! ! ")
end
end

Title: We need a fast an stable hub
Post by: Saivert on 25 April, 2005, 12:25:29
We need a fast an stable hub and DCH++ is one such hub.
PtokaX can be very hungry and eat up a lot of resources (uneccessary) even with few users connected.

I just wanted to discuss LUA scripts running on DCH++ as I couldn't find any other fourms where they discussed LUA scripts for hub softwares.

So, sorry if you guys feel all warm and fuzzy about PtokaX and don't give a shit about DCH++.

To Sedulus: Why did you smile in the post after what Hawk just wrote (the stupid script). Do you like PtokaX?

Why do you lie here  ?(
DCH++ use more badwith and more cpu than PtokaX :]
DCH++ is very bad and creators know it, that is why is here no real binary release :P

Having a sense of humor doesn't relate directly to any matter of opinion.

...DCH++ is also not a mainstream hub software. It is for us who likes to code and hack things. If you want a n00b hubsoft, then go for YnHub or even Neo-Modus DirectConnect hub (v1.00000)...

...Don't forget PtokaX...

Why needing to use irrogating sentences? There are facts in computers' world. If a software uses more bandwitdh under same conditions, it surely does; there can't be anything uncertain about this. If you worry which one is better, prepare to of them with same scripts or without scripts and run on the same system with same count of users then please post your results here.
