Anyone up for creating a small WG3 app?

Ghaleon · Post by **Ghaleon** » Sun Jul 23, 2006 12:26 am

I'm basically looking for someone skilled enough to create a small WG3.3 application that prints whos online, how long they have been online, and in what module they are in, to a btrieve dat file every (1-5 seconds) or so. I can supply WG dev kit and borland 5.0 if need be.

Let me know if any of you guys would be interested in such a task.

I need it because I have upgraded my btrieve for WG3.3 to pervasive 9.5 with sql, so all the WG dat files can be retrieved dynamically via php/odbc. Im attempting to create a online editor for MajorMUD, but I need to make sure the player isn't in game before editing. Also it would be nice to be able to display whos online.

good luck with metro. After not seeing an update from them in what 2 years? I dont think they care about majormud anymore.

What is the datablock you speak of? I'm a php/sql programmer, not much of a btrieve one

Also, I'll be home all day so you can msg me via aim and I can get you what you need.

I would like this as well for WG2.0. I can use it for a users online web page and for the finger server. Can it save to a file that is named in a msg file, and can the file be setup in level 6? Can an option to overwrite the file os it can ba a log or a list.

ok this is what i got dont know if its what ya want but it works over here with no crashes:

every 5-3600 seconds whichever you set in whoson.msg it saves all users online that are active in a class to whoson.dat

if a user logs off it deletes there name from whoson.dat

it adds a global command /who to display all users online and what module they are in.

what it saves to whoson.dat is:

userid
module they are in
time online in minutes

guess thats what ya wanted eh?

i also have an active-h whos online module for wg 2.0 i will be releasing after i find a damn icon maker to make the ico thats shows everyone online,module they are and what channel

so yourdomain/whoson

would show a web page that said:

CHAN USERID CLASS SEX AGE MODULE
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
001 Ice SYSOP (M) 31 Tele-Arena Platinum
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your awesome! Thats exactly what I need. I dont use worldgroups built in web server so the dat files all I need. The new version of btrieve (9.5) has a built in SQL feature so i can get it all dynamically through odbc.

Only question is where can I get the module?
