[hlcoders] Naming format for Server Plugins
I've seen quite a few people releasing server plugins already and, I don't know if this has been discussed, but would it be a wise idea to create some sort of default naming scheme? With metamod we had myplugin_mm, so maybe we should do myplugin_sp? And since the server can read multiple vdf files in the addons/ folder, it would be wise for people who make plugins to distribute the vdf file with it, named after their plugin (myplugin_sp.vdf). Just a suggestion... UA used to keep a big doc on standards like this. -David Anderson ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

I guess the new standard is serverplugin_myname At least it is what the sdk suggest (the sample is serverplugin_empty).

The above is much less ambiguous than xxx_sp. What is sp ? Server Plugin? Single Player? Super Powered? :) -- Jeffrey botman Broome ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders
Re: [hlcoders] Naming format for Server Plugins
Hrm, I guess you like typing a lot more ;] That's ten extra characters, why not just abbreviate it... it also makes it so the actual purpose of the file is later in the name instead of immediate (which is confusing). -David Anderson On Mon, 6 Dec 2004, Jeffrey botman Broome wrote: Marcelo Bezerra wrote: I guess the new standard is serverplugin_myname At least it is what the sdk suggest (the sample is serverplugin_empty).
