[SLVD] Pawn Cell Size

Shooting King · **Author**

Code:

// This is pawn code (amxmodx plugin)
new var;

1. What is the type and size of var ? Is it a Cell ?

2. What is the exact meaning of casting ? For what purposes are reinterpret cast and static cast are used ? Are there any more types of castings ?

3. In context of the following functions what does FP_STRINGEX (copy back string) mean ?

Code:

int MF_RegisterForward( const char *funcname, ForwardExecType exectype, ... );
int MF_RegisterSPForward( AMX *amx, int func, ... );
int MF_RegisterSPForwardByName( AMX *amx, const char *func, ... );

4.

Does pawn cell size change ? And how is that useful ?
