privchan.lsl

This is the source code of an included piece of LSL that I use frequently.  It returns a channel number based on the key of the owner.

If you don’t use (or want to use) the Firestorm preprocessor, copy the code between the hash directives and replace the #include that led you to this page with the code you find here (that’s essentially what the preprocessor does for you automatically).

#ifndef __PRIVCHAN_DEF
#define __PRIVCHAN_DEF

integer privchan () {
    return ((integer)("0x"+llGetSubString((string)llGetOwner(),-8,-1)) & 0x3FFFFFFF) ^ 0xBFFFFFFF;
}

#endif // __PRIVCHAN_DEF
