 |
|
Well, I'm going to make a bot for a certain channel on IRC and so far, it isn't working how I want it to. The code I'm having problems with is:
| Code: | char nick[] = "";
char tempnick[] = "";
char identify[] = "";
char tempidentify[] = "";
int isregistered = 1;
char idleident[] = "";
char tempidleuser[] = "";
char tempidlepass[] = "";
int main() {
std::cout << "Enter a nick: ";
std::cin >> tempnick;
sprintf(nick, "NICK %s\r\n", tempnick);
std::cout << "Enter the pass with nickserv(0 if not registered): ";
std::cin >> tempidentify;
sprintf(identify, "PRIVMSG nickserv IDENTIFY %s\r\n", tempidentify);
if (strcmp(tempidentify, "0") == 0) {
isregistered = 0;
}
std::cout << "Enter your idlerpg username(cAsE sEnSaTiVe): ";
std::cin >> tempidleuser;
std::cout << "Enter your idlerpg password(cAsE sEnSaTiVe): ";
std::cin >> tempidlepass;
sprintf(idleident, "PRIVMSG idlebot login %s %s\r\n", tempidleuser, tempidlepass);
printf("%s = NICK\n %s = identify\n %s = idleident\n", nick, identify, idleident);
Sleep(10000);
exit(0); |
That outputs:
| Quote: | Enter a nick: nick
Enter the pass with nickserv(0 if not registered): passwithnickserv
Enter your idlerpg username(cAsE sEnSaTiVe): idleuser
Enter your idlerpg password(cAsE sEnSaTiVe): idlepass
NIPRPRIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i IVM
SG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i
= NICK
PRPRIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i IVMS
G idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i
= identify
PRIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i IVMSG
idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG idlebot login RIVMSG i
= idleident |
I filled out what it asks and that's what happens.
Does anyone know why its happening and/or can tell me how to fix it? Thanks.

Personally, with so many cout/cin's i would just use namespace std;
| Code: | | sprintf(nick, "NICK %s\r\n", tempnick); |
Nothing is stored in yet
Why switch between cout/sprintf?
| Code: | | sprintf(identify, "PRIVMSG nickserv IDENTIFY %s\r\n", tempidentify); |
Nothing is stored in identify yet either.
On second thought, I'm not familiar enough with sprintf() to be positive but if nothing else consider this a bump for you.

just do this
Then at the start of your code (or when you need a clean buffer)
| Code: | | memset(nick, 0,255); |

cout just prints out a message.
sprintf sets the destination (first parameter) to what you have for the second parameter and then sets the %'s to what you have for the third, fourth, fifth, etc. to the value of those. Similar to printf in the way of the %'s.
@blankrider: Thanks, that worked

Main problem is that you are not allocating memory for those strings, and it is not being allocated locally. You need to make it an array of given size or allocate it dynamically (malloc).

you cannot do
char tempidleuser[] = "";
etc.. it has to be allocated yah..
like char tempidleuser[2] = "";
that will be a array for 2 characters..
you think using tempidleuser[]
will give you any size you want? and that is the case it does work.. when you do tempidleuser[] in a function.. you can *Copy* another array and it will work but you just copied it but the allocation still happened but you just don't see it..
| Code: |
int main(int a, char*b[]) {
playerChat("test test 123 testing, oh yah up the ...");
return 0;
}
void playerChat(char chat[]) {
printf("chat = %s", chat);
}

Add
using namespace std;
So you can just do cout instead of std::cout. |

So we see who is a lazy coder.
I Don't recommend doing what _void_ told you to do. It's pointless and stupid for only using a mere 2 functions. Especially when the application is small.
