[JASS] Generated Script Questions

[Starquizer]

When I opened the map.j file I found something that I don't understand.

1) I created 2 triggers: Untitled Trigger 001 and Untitled Trigger 002.

I converted Untitled Trigger 001 to custom text and then removed all the text when the trigger is converted.

The other one was left empty events, conditions and actions.

now to the most important part, the map.j:

//***************************************************************************

//*

//*  Triggers

//*

//***************************************************************************



//===========================================================================

// Trigger: Untitled Trigger 001

//===========================================================================

//TESH.scrollpos=-1

//TESH.alwaysfold=0

//===========================================================================

// Trigger: Untitled Trigger 002

//===========================================================================

function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_002_Actions takes nothing returns nothing

endfunction



//===========================================================================

function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_002 takes nothing returns nothing

    set gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_002 = CreateTrigger(  )

    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Untitled_Trigger_002, function Trig_Untitled_Trigger_002_Actions )

endfunction



//===========================================================================

function InitCustomTriggers takes nothing returns nothing

    call InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001(  )

    call InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_002(  )

endfunction

in the line call InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001( ) the function InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001( ) don't exist, how is it possible to call it when it don't exist without causing any errors ?

You deleted the function, but you're trying to call it. It causes a problem.

...how is it possible to call it when it don't exist without causing any errors ?

It is not possible to call something that doesn't exist.

Yeah it should bring up an error.

However, if you are asking how NewGen handles it when an InitTrig function doesn't exist, then the answer is that it will simply comment // the line out.

It's the code that hadn't parsed by JassHelper yet. Open your map with any MPQ-archiver and extract "war3map.j". In this file that line will be comment.

//Function not found: call InitTrig_Untitled_Trigger_001(  )

True, I found it in map.j.
