[Solved] Use global variable in JASS

[GolluM_KoMe]

Hello again ! : )

How can I make vJASS not to be pissed off by the fact I use global variables in the trigger (with or without array)? (I made a GUI trigger that I converted into JASS)

function Trig_RemoveTruces_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local player PLAYER1 = udg_PLAYER4
    local player PLAYER2 = udg_PLAYER5
    call TriggerSleepAction( udg_TimeBetweenTruces )
    call ForceRemovePlayerSimple( PLAYER1, udg_DiploTrucesOf[GetConvertedPlayerId(PLAYER2)])
    call ForceRemovePlayerSimple( PLAYER2, udg_DiploTrucesOf[GetConvertedPlayerId(PLAYER1)])
    call DisplayTextToForce( GetPlayersAll(), ( "The truce between " + udg_StringNameFaction[GetConvertedPlayerId(PLAYER1)] + " and " + udg_StringNameFaction[GetConvertedPlayerId(PLAYER2)] + " has ended." ) )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_RemoveTruces takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_RemoveTruces = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_RemoveTruces, function Trig_RemoveTruces_Actions )
endfunction

Thanks for reading the forum !

The question doesn't make any sense and no one wants to see that shit converted code.

Show us what error you're getting and post the original GUI triggers..

How can I make vJASS

You can't. Only knowledgeable people like Vexorian who can. (He, in fact, the one who invented vJASS). Lmao.

What do you mean that vJass is pissed off? Your code does not work?

vJASS does not come with vanilla warcraft 3. You have to get a mod for the editor.

I'm not sure what author is talking about (like all others posters) but maybe you ask for free globals declarations, like this:

globals
    integer array myInteger
endglobals

Wow... Ok I'm bad with JASS cause I mainly use GUI and don't know much about it; and OK my question is badly phrased, I admit. But come on, you don't all have to be so condescending you know?
But nvm, I just wanted to know why when checking the syntax (Syntax Check button and when the map loads), I get a message stating that the global variables I use are not declared, and they clearly are as they're made with the "Variable Editor". But the trigger works fine. i just wanted to get rid of this message and thought something was wrong but it doesn't really matter.

I'll suggest don't use Syntax Checker then. A code can still compile correctly even with an "error" from the Syntax Checker.

I've never used it in my modding career.

Does it only throw an error when you convert to JASS?

 

[GolluM_KoMe]

Does it only throw an error when you convert to JASS?

Yep

But I found my answer on an other thread : I just cannot avoid it with JNGP. It doesn't take into account variables created with the "Variable Editor" and thus thinks they're not declared.

Thanks guys

But then I don't quite understand. You say it also throws an error when it's not converted, so GUI ; but you also say the problem is it doesn't take the variables into accoutn which are created with Variable Editor (so with GUI). But when it is created with GUI, it should work without any problems when using GUI.

The syntax checker checks the syntax of the JASS triggers.
The GUI Global Variables (the udg_ variables) are not included in the syntax checker.
That is why we dont use it.
We save the map, which automatically runs the vJASS precompiler and generates the vanilla JASS code and checks the syntax.

No no I never said that. GUI is fine ofc. And any JASS (even when not converted but directly written) using udg_ type variables triggers the syntax error.

Nice to know !

Learn C++. Use sfmpq.dll (found in jassnewgenpack, API here) to open the map file and extract file "war3map.j", parse it and run it through JASS2 syntax checker (e.g. pjass (found in jassnewgenpack) argumentation: pjass.exe path\to\common.j path\to\Blizzard.j path\to\war3map.j) and import it back to the map.

Inspect wehack.lua (found in jasssnewgenpack) to learn how to integrate your tool into WE. That file also gives you good insight on what exactly is done before calling jasshelper (find "function compilemap_path(mappath)").

Now that you know, when can we expect RheikoJASS?

Perhaps, in another billion years to come.
