UseCallbacks

Available since Version 1.19.

This function should only be called in a Path Handler script.

Builds a file as the game requests it using callback functions.

Syntax

UseCallbacks( length, read_callback, close_callback )

Arguments

  • length (integer): The file size of the file in bytes.
  • read_callback (function(position, length)): Callback called each time the game tries to read from the file.
    • position (integer): The position the game is reading from.
    • length (integer): How much data the game is trying to read.
  • close_callback (function()): Callback called when the game closes its handle on the file.

Return Values

No return values.

Examples

Don't fucking use this.

Version History

Version 1.24

Fixed a major issue where Lua functions that are only supposed to work when handling a path (Output, Redirect, GetPath, IsWriting and UseCallbacks) could be called in a UseCallbacks callback but would not work properly. Now they cannot be called in this case.
