PJASS Updates

[Vexorian]

To use the newest PJass in New Gen Pack and with patch 1.23:
To use this thing in newgen pack:
* Update jasshelper to latest version.
* Copy new pjass.exe to jasshelper's folder in JNGP.
* Change jasshelper.conf in JNGP's folder to:

Code:

// tweaked jasshelper.conf for newgen pack, notice that in this setup grimoire's main folder is jasshelper's work folder (.)

[lookupfolders]
// Just type the folders where //! import would look for if relative paths where used, include the final \
// embed them in quotes
// example: "c:\"
// The order causes priority:
".\jass\"

[externaltools]
// this is for //! external NAME args the syntax is "NAME","executable path"
// example:
//"OBJMERGE","c:\kool.exe"

//* 
//* grimextension pack by pitzermike:
//*

You can remove the -rb if you don't want PJass to report the return bug as a syntax error...

Is pjass_10j or 10I currently the latest pjass?

I can save but i still can't test the map>>

[Deaod]

1.0l is the current version.

[PitzerMike]

Saving is good, but if the map doesn't run, your map probably has an occurrance of return bug that wc3 catches, but pjass doesn't.

[DreamRaider]

So wat do i do to solve this?

[Deaod]

use the syntax checker of vanilla we to check your map. If even that one doesnt catch the error, report it to blizzard.

[Vexorian]

In case your map is in vJass ... :

I had this problem with the caster system the day of the patch release date, but it was with Zoxc's syntax checker,

Basically, if you send me your map's inputwar3map.j , I can get wc3's compiler to tell me exactly what's wrong with it. want to?

[DreamRaider]

It's just trying to test the map generally. All the map had was timerultis, nothing else. I jsut save (Which works) then i press test map and it just won't let me test map anymore.

[Vexorian]

Seems PJass doesn't report this return bug:

JASS:

function DemoMap_CacheT takes nothing returns trigger
return InitGameCache("demomap.c")
endfunction

[Vexorian]

Shadowing has been changed in 1.24 and PJass needs updates.

Now, shadowing still works, but if the global and local have different type signatures, warcraft III will not like it.

So something like this:

JASS:

globals
integer array a
endglobals
function xxx takes nothing returns nothing
 local integer a
endfunction

will turn the map non-functional.

Also something like:

JASS:

globals
real a
endglobals
function xxx takes nothing returns nothing
 local integer a
endfunction

Can I get a zip or 7sip version or something?

[PitzerMike]

Thanks for the reports, I will change it some time this week.

What about those false detects of return bug and things that compile but fail ingame? Has anyone written down the conditions that apply here? Would be nice to catch them in pjass already.


Vosty: Where's the problem? 7zip can open rar files.

[Vosty]

Ummm...
I will try it, and get back to ya.
Got it!
Thank you for the help. I did not know my 7zip could do that.

[DreamRaider]

Can u plz update your first post so we know what really is the latest version of the pjass?

[Storyyeller]

I think I found a bug

PJass won't recognized hexadecimal literals declared using $
