Addon to just rename bags?

emiaee · 07-04-14, 10:18 AM

Hello

I could not find any working CT_BagMod like addon so I have to ask here.

I just want to rename my bags by clicking on them like CT_BagMod used to do, is there any standalone addon that does that?

Thank you!

not that I'm aware of but I doubt the api calls to rename the bags have changed much so it's probably still possible

All the CT_ AddOns were moved to their home page years ago. The authors choose not to have their suite hosted on either Curse or WowInterface.

ct_mod has been on the curse site since January.. I'd guess the author rewards system may have enticed them to allow it there.

This is just hardcoded, but here you go updated for 5.4:

Actually from what i know curse asked them to remove their addons, because their servers couldn't handle the 2 millions download per month back then. But yeah now it's back on curse and maintained by me.

getglobal? Hasn't this been looked at for the last 6.5 years?

Indeed.

You should replace:

Lua Code:

getglobal(X)

with

Lua Code:

_G[X]

The last official version I could find was released in 2006, and was still using RegisterForSave, so I'd say the answer to your question is a resounding no.

Well i just spend around 45 seconds to make it work. But yeah, i'll do it when it's gonna be a release.
Getglobal is still usable and working so i'm not sure whats the hype about it.

Double handling, getglobal(x) will essentially just return _G[x] so every addon that uses getglobal is just adding unneccesary processing cycles

Plus, it was deprecated long, long (YEARS) ago. I'm surprised it's still in the game.

getglobal(x) doesn't just essentially return _G[x] -- it literally does that:

Code:

function getglobal(varr)
  return _G[varr];
end

It's defined in FrameXML/UIParent.lua. There is absolutely no reason to ever use getglobal in actively maintained or newly written code. The only excuse for it to be used anywhere would be in ancient code that still works but is not being maintained by anyone.
