get_cvar_string

Syntax

native get_cvar_string(const cvarname[], output[], iLen);

Usage

cvar
Cvar name to retrieve value from
output
Buffer to copy cvar value to
iLen
Maximum size of the buffer

Description

Gets a string value from a cvar. The cvar is accessed by name.

Note

Accessing a Cvar by name is slower than direct pointer access, which is
why the otherwise equivalent get_pcvar_string() function should be used
instead.

Return

Number of cells written to buffer.
