Help with storing client httpObject data
by Paul Griffiths · in General Discussion · 05/23/2006 (4:51 am) · 9 replies
Hi, im building a yahoo messeger type system in to my game and i need to store clients messages.
Im using httpObject to dowload the message list.
for example a httpObject line is:
user=girl_next_door;hour=12;min=40;day=10;mon=20;year=06;message=hello, ill come up tonight!
I then extract the info and am then left with variables for example:
%user = "girl_next_door";
%hour = 12;
%min = 40;
%day = 10;
%month = 20;
%year = 6;
%message = "hello, ill come up tonight!";
how would i then go about storing this info for multiple messages to use in my game?
Thanks for any help , Paul.

I just need a way to store a group of variables in a sort of vector?
I need to be able to itterate through them and be able to remove them by index.

You need to be a SDK owner to see it.

I don't think you do, i can get as far as DARK RAVEN STUDIOS website, but their links are not ready yet.
I'm just surprised no one's answering my question? It is simple after all, basic building blocks.

You could either store it in memory or in a db. Though if it's like yahoo, you just want to store it locally and you could use file object to store the information in a file.

The members messages are stored on a main http web server, then members load up their messages in to their game locally.
I'm used to coding in java & c# so I'm looking to create objects and store them in a sort of vector? any help appreciated.

How would you store it in memory? that's what I'm after, storing in a file seems bit silly.The members messages are stored on a main http web server, then members load up their messages in to their game locally.
