os_extrainfo keeps telling me usage-syntax
« on: August 19, 2007, 12:22:48 PM »
as i read the documentation on the module, i think you have wrong expectations :)
as i understand it, the only params it accepts are nickname and channel and not an actual nickname or channel name...
also sounds logical since the modules' description says it gives general information on the number of nicknames/channels registered, forbidden etc and not nickname specific info..

oh... I thought the whole thead will be deleted.

Yeah doubtless, Viper, you're right. Did not get the point this morning ^^ heh. But maybe you agree its a bit confusing.

(now I deleted my initial posting thinking the thread will be gone then, but vipers answer kept being here, so I shortly summarize: I installed that module and did "/msg oprserv info SNU" and got the answer that I use the wrong syntax. Now viper remembred me that this module can't show user/channelspecific informations, so dont replace "nickname" by a nickname, just type nickname OR channel :D )

The syntax does seem to be a bit fuzzy. It's probably better to be more specific such as: Syntax: INFO nicks|chans

I can't use the command without causing a segfault....
As for the cause.... it s quite obvious :)

Code: [Select]
char *param = moduleGetLastBuffer();
...
if (param)
  free(param);


moduleGetLastBuffer() returns a pointer to a copy of the complete last buffer. This copy  should never be messed with though, nor free()'d.

/**
 * Return a copy of the complete last buffer.
 * This is needed for modules who cant trust the strtok() buffer,
 * as we dont know who will have already messed about with it.
 * @reutrn a pointer to a copy of the last buffer - DONT mess
 * with this, copy if first if you must do things to it.
 **/
char *moduleGetLastBuffer(void);

What I do with moduleGetLastBuffer like this and it seems to work well, never free()'d as Viper says:


       text = moduleGetLastBuffer();
           if (text) {
                        cmd = myStrGetToken(text, ' ', 0);
                        text = myStrGetToken(text, ' ', 1);
            if (strcasecmp(cmd, "BASIC") == 0) {
