GetAmxAddress on Linux

[Y-Less]

I was looking at porting this function to work on Linux as well, since the comments currently say that it only works on Windows:

amx_assembly/amx.inc

Line 51 in af6c788

// to this script. This function works only on Windows!

After decoding the assembly and comparing it to the PAWN ABI on Linux, I realised that the same code should in theory work there. Then I noticed this commit:

ae06f5d

Which only seems to support my theory. Is it just that the comment is wrong?

Unfortunately I can't remember why I thought it didn't work on Linux, but I suspect it had something to do with opcode -> address translation in the VM (opcode.inc probably hadn't been invented yet). It's possible that it works now 😃

OK, I'll test it again (should have done that before asking, but couldn't be bothered to set up a Linux box right then).

Have you tried Bash on Windows? I heard it can run Linux executables, would be pretty convenient if it worked with SA-MP server.

Edit:

Nope, doesn't work at all. The thing doesn't seem to support 32-bit executables.
