[GUIDE][Obj-C] Types of auras

[Tanaris4]

All-

I've been working to better understand what the different types of auras are. Mainly because once you get a certain talent, generally you will have a hidden/passive (not sure the right word here) aura with the exact same name as the aura which procs, which is kind of annoying.

Here is what I've determined so far:

typedef struct WoWAura {
    GUID    guid;
    UInt32  entryID;
    UInt32  bytes;
    UInt32  duration;
    UInt32  expiration;
	UInt32	unk1;
	UInt32	unk2;
	UInt32	unk3;
} WoWAura;

- (UInt32)stacks {
    return (([self bytes] >> 24) & 0xFF);
}

- (UInt32)level {
    return (([self bytes] >> 16) & 0xFF);
}

- (BOOL)isDebuff {
    return (([self bytes] >> 7) & 1);
}

- (BOOL)isActive {
     return (([self bytes] >> 5) & 1);
}

- (BOOL)isPassive {
    return (([self bytes] >> 4) & 1) && ![self isActive];
}

- (BOOL)isHidden {
    return (([self bytes] >> 7) & 1);
}

I believe these to be 100% accurate based on my testing, but of course I could be wrong in a few places. Let me know if you see any issues. Enjoy!

    UInt32	unk1;
    UInt32	unk2;
    UInt32	unk3;

Are values of variable aura effect UnitAura - World of Warcraft Programming.

value1 - Value of variable effect 1 of the aura. (HoTs, resource-capturing trinkets, etc.) (number)
value2 - Value of variable effect 2 of the aura. (HoTs, resource-capturing trinkets, etc.) (number)
value3 - Value of variable effect 3 of the aura. (HoTs, resource-capturing trinkets, etc.) (number)

And I think there's one more unknown int at the end of struct.
