strange list errors

[Alishen]

So i know how to use list, this has always  worked in  the past for me.

 touch_start(integer total_number)
 {
 list stuff = llParseString2List((string)llGetObjectDesc(),[":"], []);
 who = llDetectedKey(0); 
 vector pos = llDetectedTouchST(0);
 integer link = llDetectedLinkNumber(0);
 Pos = ((llFloor((pos.x*1)*x)/1)*(integer)y)+llCeil(pos.y*y);   
 {
 if(link == 5){
 if(~llListFindList(player, [who]))
 {
// do somthing
 llSay(0,"do something");
 }else{
 llSay(0,"this is the list key residing in the player list - "+llDumpList2String(player,","));
 llSay(0,"this is the the clickers key, we looking for - "+(string)who);
 }
 }
 }

 

my uid key is added to the list after a payment, the list is player as you see in the llDumpList2String(player,","));

 

I should get  llSay(0,"do something"), as my key is clearly in the list, also I tried it with 

 if(llListFindList(player, [who]) == -1)
 {

// key not in list

 llSay(0,"this is the list key residing in the player list - "+llDumpList2String(player,","));
 llSay(0,"this is the the clickers key, we looking for - "+(string)who);

 

also I make the key a string and trimmed it for white spaces before placing in the list feeling that might be it, but still no.
 }else{

//key in list
// do somthing
 llSay(0,"do something");
 }

every time I run the function it can not find the key in the list, but as you see in my debug message my key is in the list and my key is the clicker..

Your problem is a type mismatch.

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        list stuff  = ["779e1d56-5500-4e22-940a-cd7b5adddbe0"];
        key who     =  "779e1d56-5500-4e22-940a-cd7b5adddbe0";

        llOwnerSay( (string)llListFindList(stuff, [who]) );
    }
}

This script will return -1 (not found). Why? Because the list contains a string, and who contains a key.

They may look the same, but they aren't the same.

Yeah if an LSL function takes a list as an argument make sure that each list entry has been cast to the expected type.
