Title: Module Problem
Post by: lavinpj1 on August 17, 2006, 04:27:54 PM

Hi there,

I am trying to adapt ms_send.c into ms_sasend.c, in such that svsadmins can send memos from another user. Here is the slightly adapted function:

int ms_sasend(User *u)
{
    char *from = strtok(NULL, " ");
    char *name = strtok(NULL, " ");
    char *text = strtok(NULL, "");
    int z = 0;
    memo_send(from, name, text, z);
    return MOD_CONT;
}

This causes segfaults, and I think I understand why. It is caused by from being the wrong type. from being a pointer rather than a real value.

I do not know C and nor am I a particuarly good module maker.

Could someone aid me on getting this to work?

Thanks

Thats a hugely abusive module. - Its like being able to forge messages. - I wouldn't be on a network using that.

I trust you aren't modifying the source are using a module?

Yes, it's a module not a modification.

a) I trust my svsadmins
b) The use of it is to allow users to send memos via a bot from the web. I will likely add a nick check for the bot's nick once it is up and working.
