Plugins in Actions

[AllenConquest]

Is it possible to use the output from a custom plugin as a command in an action? So for example can I get LCDSmartie to perform an action if I return a certain string from a plugin function ?

yes just return a number (not integer).


For example

if $dll(test,1,1,1) = 1 then turn backlight on


just make sure that function 1 returns the character 1 if something is true, otherwise 0

You can use a dll in the condition and also in the action.

When using a dll as an action any string returned will be checked to see if it contains an action - if it does then it will also do that action. [i.e. If dll returns "WAPlay" then it will make win amp play etc].

Thanks. Just the information I needed. How often are the action conditions checked ?

Every 250 ms (1/4 second).
