DWC_AddMatchKeyInt

Syntax

#include <dwc.h>

u8 DWC_AddMatchKeyInt(u8 keyID,
                      const char *keyString,
                      const int *valueSrc);

Arguments

keyID	Specify 0 when getting a new `keyID`. If an additional key ID already in use is specified, `valueSrc` is reset if a `keyString` the same as the one in use is passed, but nothing will be done if a different `keyString` is passed. A maximum of 154 keys can be set with the application.
keyString	Pointer to the string that identifies the key. The string is copied and maintained in the library. Do not use the same key name with a different key ID.
valueSrc	Pointer to the value that corresponds to the key. When the GameSpy server performs polling, the string is accessed using this pointer and uploaded to the server.

Return Values

The key ID for the added key. 0 is returned when the key ID could not be added because of a parameter error or because the upper limit for the configured key setting was exceeded. 0 is returned even if this function is called before DWC_InitFriendsMatch.

Description

This function adds a key (of type int) used as a matchmaking condition.

The added key can be used in the matchmaking condition string for the DWC_ConnectToAnybodyAsync function or in the player ranking callback function (DWCEvalPlayerCallback) for the DWC_ConnectToAnybodyAsync and DWC_ConnectToFriendsAsync functions.

All data related to the added key is cleared when the matchmaking completes, so the key must be registered again the next time matchmaking is performed.

While there is no limit to the length of the keyString or valueSrc value for calling this function, when the values set for the overall application are used as strings, they must total 2048 or fewer bytes.

It is no problem if strings of several to dozens of bytes are in keyString/valueSrc, but do not set any relatively large amounts of data, such as text encoded as binary data.

You cannot specify an empty string ("") for a key. If an empty string is specified, the DWC_GetMatchStringValue function will return the default value.

Note: Not all strings can be used for key names. Do not use the following key names.
