Iotavex 0 Posted June 12, 2019 Hello scripters, I wonder if there is a way to use functionality of external programs. I'm going to write a own program which handles playerspawn groups in a database and want to send the playerid from the server to this program to receive a group number. What I looked for was RPC. But i don't see a way to access external RPC programs. I've also found a the JSON parser but not a way to call an URL to get information. Another way i thought of was creating and writing files to pass data between. But that is very ugly in my opinion. Do you have a valueable ideas to pass data between the server and an external program? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have a valueable ideas to pass data between the server and an external program? In arma2 & arma 3 there's an C++/C# (.net) example how to create library. But for DayZ the's no an example of connection and call functions from library yet. An I think that ther's no any future for that idea. About DB - there's Hive class, witch have a method allow to connect to MySQL server. But Still no documentation about DB requirements, connection type . So as result I want to say that there's no need to create application, you need to create a Library for DayZ where you can fetch data from required classes lists and dump 'em into database over your new static library. That's all for now what I know about DayZ DB futures. Also I think that DayZ Dev don't give an opportunity to override default file hive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
