[JASS] How to fix "cannot convert from this type to that type" functions in the old spells?

[hemmedo]

Hello,

I have an old spell which doesn't compile with the current version of jasshelper anymore.

it says that there are type mismatches in certain functions' return statements.

function H2I takes handle h returns integer
    return h
    return 0
endfunction
function I2H takes integer i returns handle
    return i
    return null
endfunction
function I2U takes integer i returns unit
    return i
    return null
endfunction
function I2G takes integer i returns group
    return i
    return null
endfunction
function I2E takes integer i returns effect
    return i
    return null
endfunction
function I2T takes integer i returns timer
    return i
    return null
endfunction

How can I fix this problem for my map to finally compile in the latest wc3 (1.32) ?

edit:fixed.

It sounds like you figured it out but those type of functions were deprecated in patch 1.24b some time ago because of security concerns. You can use GetHandleId() and hashtables now for what those functions used to do. Someone probably made a H2I return bug replacement library for compatibility in 1.24b+.

yeah I figured it out after a little bit of searching. I didnt know that 1.24 changed a lot of things.
