pawn-memory's Issues

Curyllic character encoding

Hi, everybody!

I faced the problem of memory russian characters:

new string[24] = "Русский текст";

MEM_set_arr(ptr, 0, string, sizeof(string));
MEM_get_arr(ptr, 0, string, sizeof(string));

print(string); --> ������� �����

Can this be fixed in the next version?

Update documentation

I need to document this release according to http://forum.sa-mp.com/showthread.php?t=381784

Modernize project

• Use CMake, as the dependency resolver, and build system
• Upgrade to C++20 or newer
• Utilize modern architectural design pattern
• Replace the old way of declaring PAWN natives, with the usage of pawn-natives
• Define GitHub actions, and runners, to build native libraries

Server crash with +20 players in server

I don't know why this happens, but my server has 21 players daily and the only plugin I have is pawn-memory.

Thanks, iAmir.

Memory Leaks

Hi, if you are still maintaining this repo, I encountered some memory leaks by using your vectors and maps.

Failed To Load on Windows Server 2019

Have no issues with this plugin when running on Windows 11, but when I try to run the server on Windows Server 2019, both pawn-memory and streamer fail to load.

I have C++ 2015-2022 installed.

Error on CentOS 7

I got sth like this in server_log.txt /lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.8' not found
Please compile for CentOS 7

Not able to compile on Linux

Hello!

I'm not able to compile this plugin on Linux because your source/makefile requires GCC 4.9.x

[root@eu pawn-memory]# make
gcc -std=c++14 -c -m32 -fPIC -O3 -w -DLINUX -I./SDK/amx/ ./SDK/amx/*.c
gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-std=c++14’
make: *** [all] Error 1

All of the boxes I have use GCC 4.8 and CentOS 6/7 mainstream only has GCC 4.8.

[root@eu pawn-memory]# gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16)

I'm using the latest RHEL 7.x:

[root@eu pawn-memory]# cat /etc/*release* | grep -E 7.[0-9]+ | head -n 1
CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708 (Core)

I've already tried upgrading to GCC 4.9.x (which took ~45 minutes to compile GCC 4.9) on another server just to get it to compile, but ran into other issues:

[root@dal1 pawn-memory]# make
gcc -std=c++14 -c -m32 -fPIC -O3 -w -DLINUX -I./SDK/amx/ ./SDK/amx/*.c
g++ -std=c++14 -c -m32 -fPIC -O3 -w -DLINUX -I./SDK/amx/ ./SDK/*.cpp
g++ -std=c++14 -c -m32 -fPIC -O3 -w -DLINUX -I./SDK/amx/ ./*.cpp
g++ -m32 -O2 -fshort-wchar -shared -o "./memory.so" *.o
/usr/bin/ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/local/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.9.2/crtbeginS.o' is incompatible with i386 output
/usr/bin/ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file `/usr/local/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.9.2/crtendS.o' is incompatible with i386 output
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [all] Error 1

The reason why I want to recompile this plugin is because the .so we have already is compiled against another libstdc++ version that we don't have:

[05:30:27]   Failed (/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.8' not found (required by plugins/memory.so))

Any suggestions?
