Castbar / Statusbar text?

[xzidez]

Just as topic says. Is there anyone here who knows a good way to get the castbar or statusbar? Addons seems to be able to use it so there has to be a lua command for it?

Also I was looking for something in the descriptors for the units. But cant find anything here.. I mean. The mobs also have a "castbar"..
So it has to be on the NPC descriptor?
UNIT_CHANNEL_SPELL
UNIT_DYNMIC_SPELl
.. or one of the "flags".

These are the only ones I could image has anything to do with it. But .. alas. nothing

rep for everyone that helps ;D yaay

spell, rank, displayName, icon, startTime, endTime, isTradeSkill, castID, interrupt = UnitCastingInfo("unit")

Since this was the same topic, i just post my question here insted of creating a new thread.
Is there a descriptor of offset from the unit/player base that descripes if the unit/player is casting a spell. I know about the descriptor UNIT_FIELDS_CHANNELING_SPELL, but that is just a part of what i'm looking for.

I want to have something like: if (unit.ChannelingSpell != 0 && unit.CastingSpell != 0) then ...

Thanks for any help

{
   IsCasting = 0xA68, //The same in path 3.2.2 as in 3.2a
   ChanneledCasting = 0xA80,  //The same in path 3.2.2 as in 3.2a
}
/// <summary>
/// Checks if Unit is casting and returns an int of the spellID being cast
/// </summary>
public int IsCasting {
      get 
      {
		uint pointer = ObjectPointer + (uint)GDescriptors.OtherField.IsCasting; 
		return Memory.ReadInt(pointer);
      }
}
			
/// <summary>
/// Returns true if Casting false if not.
/// </summary>
public bool Casting {
      get
      {
                     return (IsCasting != 0 || ChanneledCasting != 0);
      }
}
/// <summary>
/// Returns the current ID of the spell Channeled.
/// </summary>
public int ChanneledCasting
{
       get
       {
		return Memory.ReadInt(ObjectPointer + (uint)GDescriptors.OtherField.ChanneledCasting); 
       }
}
