Pawn Array View

Pawn Array View (PAV) library is a C++ wrapper for Pawn arrays. This abstracts the details of how the Pawn arrays are stored in memory and provides a intutive C/++ like interface for dealing with them.

Installing

include array_view.hpp to use PAV

Structures

template <typename T, std::size_t dims>
class pawn::array_view<T, dims>;

The pawn::array_view takes two template parameters: type of the values in the array (T) and the number of dimensions (dims).

Constructors

pawn::array_view() noexcept;

pawn::array_view(cell *phys_addr) noexcept;

The phys_addr parameter takes the address of the indirection table (begining of the multidimensional array). In case of single dimensional arrays, it takes the address to the begining of the array data.

Member functions

member function	description
operator=	point to the same array as RHS
operator[]	access array elements or subarray
swap	swap objects
assign	assign the array to wrap around

Example

//native test_function(arr[][], sz_major = sizeof(arr), sz_minor = sizeof(arr[]));
cell AMX_NATIVE_CALL test_cell_0_0(AMX* amx, cell* params)
{
    cell *phys_addr;
    amx_GetAddr(amx, params[1], &phys_addr);
    assert(phys_addr != NULL);

    pawn::array_view<cell, 2> arr(phys_addr);
    for (int i = 0; i < params[2]; i++) {
        for (int j = 0; j < params[3]; j++) {
            logprintf("%d\n", arr[i][j]);
        }
    }
	  return 1;
}
