Category talk:LSL Functions

Removed clutter from page

I've moved this stuff away from the main page: that is for hard info. To Do lists and abuse belong here on the discussion page. EF Klaar 02:09, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

Todo:

1. fill in 'spec' field when applicable.
2. write 'examples' (see Needs Example)
3. write 'notes'
4. write 'caveats'.

To coordinate your work, see LSL_Portal_To-do. Use Template:LSL_Function to for page entries and be sure to look at it to familiarize yourself with the features supported.

When the task of initially creating the pages is finished, delete the to-do list at the top.

There is apparently a bug in the wiki that may mess up the alphabetic order. Just editing and saving a page that is out of order is enough to put it back in order. The ordering bug rears it's ugly head when the templates used on every function page are changed (fix bugs in the templates etc).

I have what might work as a solution to this problem but I don't want to deploy it just yet. I still don't fully understand why this bug occurs. And implementing it would cause the re-rendering of 500+ pages. --Strife Onizuka 23:28, 19 April 2007 (PDT)

Mr Strife Onizuka , whould you please dont write your name here any more, thats not your personal Blog!

Most of the content from the header had been there since LSL portion of the wiki was in its infancy. During that time, it was not a usable resource and putting notes on article pages to coordinate the work was reasonable. At this time, the content has mostly stabilized to a usable state. As to the comment about the sort order, it is infact a bug in the wiki and if you review the page history, multiple people posted comments about it on the article page, hence the comment. At this point, you are right, it is not appropriate and it's removal is called for. The attack on me personally while containing some validity (thou the spelling and grammes could use work) was not called for and ill advised, I am the largest contributor after all. -- Strife Onizuka 13:01, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

P cont.

I can't edit this so whoever can needs to put P cont. instead of the P heading. Valence Sojourner 05:49, 5 March 2007 (PST)

The headings are automatically generated by the Wiki software, which appears to have been programmed to assume that the first heading on a page cannot be a continuation. This is a bug in the software and should be reported as such, but I really can't be bothered to find out how to do that. EF Klaar 02:09, 8 July 2007 (PDT)

deprecated

Should deprecated functions be included in this list? Should we organize another list for active functions or something? I'm not sure how organizational stuff is done... --Anthony Reisman 18:32, 16 March 2007 (PDT)

I'm inclined to leave them listed, they are still in the compiler after all. The current list isn't optimal. It would be good to have a table with functions and a brief description. There are more important things that need to be done IMHO right now (like writing examples). Strife Onizuka 19:01, 16 March 2007 (PDT)

Misplaced functions

llEmail and llList2Integer are under S instead of where they should be. -- Omei Turnbull

Thats a known issue, a rather annoying one at that. Editing any pages that are out of order fixes the problem for that page. This bug shows up when ever several hundred pages are forced to update all at once (as a result of updating one of the main templates). I try to combine updates to the main templates to limit how often this happens. Strife Onizuka 01:22, 21 March 2007 (PDT)
