[JASS] Looking for the 'handle2trigger' function.

I am trying to get datangle's MapKaytoUnit function working, but I can't find the needed handle functions. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to copy all of this into the map header, before dataangel's code.

// ===========================
function H2I takes handle h returns integer
    return h
    return 0
endfunction
function Handle2Trigger takes handle h return trigger
    return h
    return 0
endfunction
function Handle2Player takes handle h returns player
    return h
    return 0
endfunction

// ===========================
function LocalVars takes nothing returns gamecache
    // Replace InitGameCache with a global variable!!
    return InitGameCache("jasslocalvars.w3v")
endfunction

function SetHandleHandle takes handle subject, string name, handle value returns nothing
    if value==null then
        call FlushStoredInteger(LocalVars(),I2S(H2I(subject)),name)
    else
        call StoreInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name, H2I(value))
    endif
endfunction

function SetHandleInt takes handle subject, string name, integer value returns nothing
    if value==0 then
        call FlushStoredInteger(LocalVars(),I2S(H2I(subject)),name)
    else
        call StoreInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name, value)
    endif
endfunction

function SetHandleReal takes handle subject, string name, real value returns nothing
    if value==0 then
        call FlushStoredReal(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    else
        call StoreReal(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name, value)
    endif
endfunction

function SetHandleString takes handle subject, string name, string value returns nothing
    if value==null then
        call FlushStoredString(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    else
        call StoreString(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name, value)
    endif
endfunction

function GetHandleHandle takes handle subject, string name returns handle
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction
function GetHandleInt takes handle subject, string name returns integer
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
endfunction
function GetHandleReal takes handle subject, string name returns real
    return GetStoredReal(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
endfunction
function GetHandleString takes handle subject, string name returns string
    return GetStoredString(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
endfunction

function GetHandleUnit takes handle subject, string name returns unit
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction
function GetHandleTimer takes handle subject, string name returns timer
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction
function GetHandleTrigger takes handle subject, string name returns trigger
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction
function GetHandleEffect takes handle subject, string name returns effect
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction
function GetHandleGroup takes handle subject, string name returns group
    return GetStoredInteger(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
    return null
endfunction

function FlushHandleLocals takes handle subject returns nothing
    call FlushStoredMission(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)) )
endfunction

Also, I suggest that you make a global variable called "GameCache" of type Game Cache, and replace these lines in the code:

    // Replace InitGameCache with a global variable!!
    return InitGameCache("jasslocalvars.w3v")

with this:

    if (udg_GameCache == null) then
        set udg_GameCache = InitGameCache("jasslocalvars.w3v")
    endif
    return udg_GameCache

Otherwise it will cause severe lag in your map in the long run.

Edit

NM, figured it out myself. But for anyone else trying to mess with this you need to do the following:

change 'return 0' to 'return null' on both handle2trigger and handle2player

add:
function SetHandleBoolean takes handle subject, string name, boolean value returns nothing
if value==null then
call FlushStoredBoolean(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
else
call StoreBoolean(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name, value)
endif
endfunction

function GetHandleBoolean takes handle subject, string name returns boolean
return GetStoredBoolean(LocalVars(), I2S(H2I(subject)), name)
endfunction

and change in the unitmovement code:
all cases of 'FlushHandleVars' to 'FlushHandleLocals' or
change the function name of FlushHandleLocals to Vars
