Requests

[raybob]

I still have a desperate request I've been wanting for a while.  I haven't worked on FHFS at all in a long time but I see now why I stopped!

It would be great if you could make it so that regular variables could be used under [server start] in hfs.events even though they're not tied to a connection.

THANKS! 

[rejetto]

"regular" vars live inside the connection.
Why do you need them?
A possible way is to put them in a temporary enviroment that's lost at every execution. I mean, of the single [section]

[raybob]

I need them because I have a very large chunk of code that is impractical to rewrite.

I don't quite understand your solution, can you elaborate?

[rejetto]

Would that work if variables are lost as I said?

[raybob]

Well yeah, I wouldn't need to keep the variables after the script is complete.  But when does that ever happen? 

Also I didn't understand what you were saying I should do.

[rejetto]

But when does that ever happen? 

what?

Also I didn't understand what you were saying I should do.

you? nothing.
to get it working with current version you should prefix every variable with a #


I'm about to leave for a month, and I doubt i will get it done before i leave.
NY, not very far from you, isn't it?

[raybob]

Yeah I'm in NY.

I already use #variables like that but I was looking for a way around it.

[raybob]

So what's the conclusion, can you make it so that regular variables can be used under [start] and [stop] ?

[rejetto]

i can try, but as i told you, i'm not home and don't have the stuff with me to work on it.

[raybob]

Okay.  It's not high priority, I was just wondering 

[raybob]

If you can't do the above, it would also be helpful if you could make a way to unset all global variables after a script has finished.  Could be useful

[rejetto]

it's not that. I didn't work on it, i wasn't home for a month. Came back a week ago.

[rejetto]

ok, available in #286

[raybob]

Yay!
