llMessageLinked

Summary

Function: llMessageLinked( integer linknum, integer num, string str, key id );

0.0	Forced Delay
10.0	Energy

Lo scopo di questa funzione è di permettere la comunicazione tra gli script in uno stesso oggetto. Fà scattare un evento link_message con i medesimi parametri num, str, e id in tutti gli script nel/i prim definito/i da linknum.

• integer	linknum	–	Link number (0: unlinked, 1: root prim, >1: child prims and seated avatars) or a LINK_* flag, controlla quale/i prim riceve/ono il link_message.
• integer	num	–	Valore del secondo parametro dell'evento link_message risultante.
• string	str	–	Valore del terzo parametro dell'evento link_message risultante.
• key	id	–	Valore del quarto parametro dell'evento link_message risultante.

Potete utilizzare id come campo stringa secondario^[2]. Le dimensioni di str e id sono limitate solamente dalla memoria script disponibile.

Flag Description LINK_ROOT 1 refers to the root prim in a multi-prim linked set[1] LINK_SET -1 refers to all prims LINK_ALL_OTHERS -2 refers to all other prims

Flag Description LINK_ALL_CHILDREN -3 refers to all children, (everything but the root) LINK_THIS -4 refers to the prim the script is in

Examples

<lsl>default {

   // presupposti  // nome oggetto: LSLWiki // nome script: _lslwiki
   state_entry() 
   {
       llMessageLinked(LINK_THIS, 0, llGetScriptName(), "");
   }

   link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string msg, key id) 
   {
       llOwnerSay(msg);
       // il proprietario dell'oggetto sentirà
       // LSLWiki:_lslwiki
   }    

}</lsl>

Infinite Loop

<lsl>Message_Control(integer l, integer n) // Message_Total_Lack_Of_Control {

   integer r = (++n); // Increment the value of n.
   llMessageLinked( l, r, "", ""); // Send the result to l

}

default {

   state_entry()
   {
       Message_Control(LINK_SET, 0); // Tell all the scripts in the object that we have state_entered.
   }
   link_message(integer Sender, integer Number, string String, key Key) // This script is in the object too.
   {
       Message_Control(Sender, Number); // No filtering condition exists.
       llOwnerSay(((string)Number)); // Look at all the pretty numbers!
   }

}</lsl>

Useful Snippets

<lsl>default {

   // Quick and dirty debugging link_messages
   link_message(integer sender_num, integer num, string msg, key id) 
   {
       llSay(DEBUG_CHANNEL, llList2CSV([sender_num, num, msg, id]));
   }

}</lsl> <lsl>// This is just an example script, you shouldn't handle link message within single script this way.

default {

   // To propagate an unlimted number of arguments of any type.
   // Presumed, the separator string isn't used in any source string!
   state_entry() 
   {
       list my_list = [1, 2.0, "a string", <1, 2, 3>, <1, 2, 3, 4>, llGetOwner()];  
       string list_parameter = llDumpList2String(my_list, "

Notes

Link Numbers

Each prim that makes up an object has an address, a link number. To access a specific prim in the object, the prim's link number must be known. In addition to prims having link numbers, avatars seated upon the object do as well.

• If an object consists of only one prim, and there are no avatars seated upon it, the (root) prim's link number is zero.
• However, if the object is made up of multiple prims or there is an avatar seated upon the object, the root prim's link number is one.

When an avatar sits on an object, it is added to the end of the link set and will have the largest link number. In addition to this, while an avatar is seated upon an object, the object is unable to link or unlink prims without unseating all avatars first.

Counting Prims & Avatars

There are two functions of interest when trying to find the number of prims and avatars on an object.

• llGetNumberOfPrims() - Returns the number of prims and seated avatars.
• llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey()) - Returns only the number of prims in the object but will return zero for attachments.

integer GetPrimCount() { //always returns only the number of prims
    if(llGetAttached())//Is it attached?
        return llGetNumberOfPrims();//returns avatars and prims but attachments can't be sat on.
    return llGetObjectPrimCount(llGetKey());//returns only prims but won't work on attachments.
}

See llGetNumberOfPrims for more about counting prims and avatars.

Errata

If a script located in a child prim erroneously attempts to access link 0, it will get or set the property of the linkset's root prim. This bug (BUG-5049) is preserved for broken legacy scripts.

• Using llMessageLinked in a single prim object allows developers to mitigate some LSL limits by breaking up functionality between cooperating scripts and synchronizing actions. When you do this, be extremely careful not to create infinite loops as mentioned above.
• Estimated .25-.50 delay between receiving and sending of llLinkedMessage has been observed by some users
• Some users have noted occasional failures of linked messages when sending a message to a large number of receiving scripts in different prims using LINK_SET, LINK_ALL_OTHERS, & LINK_ALL_CHILDREN. If you encounter this problem, a workaround is to place all child prim scripts in a single prim, using targeted functions like llSetLinkPrimitiveParams to modify the prim in which the script previously resided. -- Void Singer

Deep Notes

Footnotes

1. ^ LINK_ROOT does not work on single prim objects. Unless there is an avatar sitting on the object.
2. ^ In LSL il tipo key è implementato come una string (ma con operatori e restrizioni differenti). La conversione tra tipi stringa e chiave non ha effetto sui dati contenuti.
