Old esx:getSharedObject Event Fix
This repository contains a fix for the old esx:getSharedObject event for the new ESX Legacy versions. The esx:getSharedObject event was previously used to obtain a shared object in ESX resources, but it was deprecated in version 1.9 and replaced with a new export/import method instead.
However, some older resources still rely on the old esx:getSharedObject event and may break when updated to the latest version of ESX. This repository provides a fix for this issue by restoring the old esx:getSharedObject event so that older resources can continue to function as intended.
Open both the common.lua files located in the client and server folders. Replace both the Event Handlers at the top of both files with the following code:
AddEventHandler("esx:getSharedObject", function(cb)
cb(ESX)
end)After installing the fix, restart your server, and you can use the esx:getSharedObject event as you would normally in older resources. For example, you can use the following code to get the ESX shared object in a client script:
ESX = nil
TriggerEvent('esx:getSharedObject', function(obj) ESX = obj end)
Citizen.CreateThread(function()
while ESX == nil do
Citizen.Wait(0)
end
-- Do something with the ESX shared object
end)If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improving this fix, please feel free to open an issue or submit a pull request on GitHub.
