Forums Bug Reports 6.21: $ip returns $null

As the subject says, is anyone else having this problem?

What server are you connecting too?

I know $ip doesn't work on localhost(s).

$ip works just fine for me, using Windows XP and mIRC 6.21

Works fine here as well. As mentioned, check it on other networks. Also, make sure you don't have a script running that replaces the $ip command with its own. If you do, then the script may not be compatible with 6.21.

you cant replace $identifiers

Thats debateable concidering these aliases:
alias xor return hello_xor
alias rgb return hello_rgb
alias ip return hello_ip
and
this:
//echo -a ( $rgb $rgb(123,123,123) ) ( $xor $xor(1,1) ) ( $.ip $/ip $ip )
returning
( hello_rgb 8092539 ) ( hello_xor 0 ) ( hello_ip hello_ip 80.5.185.41 )

It only seems to work on on $identifiers that require parameters. ;o

its debatable alright, i dont think i really agree with your cases tho, all the ones u showed that were over ridden were not valid internal identifiers.

Was interesting thing to note tho

apparently the $.identifier and $/identifier cases are actually bugs to do with the fact that . and / are both command prefixes, and something unusual happens when they'e parsed which is why $.../../././/.//../.ip and such will also refer to the custom 'ip' identifier

Regarding "$rgb" and "$xor", these work because $identifer and $identifier() are considered different in mirc. For example, you can't have a $bits alias but you can have a $bits() one.

I know that's what i tried showing and put it's debatable instead of stating you can replace mIRC's own identifiers :tongue:
Regarding prefixing with ./: it does trigger the custum alias i.e //echo -a $.rgb(0,0,0) returning hello_rgb but you cant really say it overrides the custum one since you need a "hack" to call it.
