I'm trying to initialize a bot with all the coding in the header. The
bot won't initilize the API and keeps coming up with reason 444.
The API initialization is called in the c prog as api_start and the
coding in the header is:
void api_start(void)
{
int rc;
printf("Attempting to initialize API...");
if(rc = aw_init(AW_BUILD)) {
printf("Failed\nUnable to initialize API (reason %d)\n", rc);
rc_errors(rc);
exit (1);
} else printf("Success\n");
}
Why is this not working?

if it helps anyone, reason 444 is RC_NOT_INITIALIZED. No clue myself cos I
don't actually program SDK bots, and only know a bit of C/C++...

Hi,

This is an answer I got from Roland Vilett when asking about AW.DLL versions
:

------------------------------------
The local DLL version is provided by the #define AW_BUILD in the aw.h file.
You'll know that AW_BUILD is the same as the DLL build if aw_init (AW_BUILD)
returns 0, since aw_init() will fail if the build number passed in is not
the same as the DLL's build number.
------------------------------------

In other words, check that you have the latest version of AW.DLL ( and
AW.H ) :-)

Since 444 is RC_NOT_INITIALIZED check the following:

1) make sure the header file aw.h does correspond to the aw.lib and aw.dll
you use.

2) see if the error is actually thrown by the code you provided. it might be
that your api_start is not called for some reason, and then EVERY other
function would throw 444 as the error code.
e.g. if you program via copy&paste (as all good programmers do it, its
called "code reuse" :) ), you might have an aw_login() or aw_create()
somewhere which on failure prints out "Failed\nUnable to initialize API
(reason %d)\n", causing you to look at the wrong place.
