get name of person joining raid?

[bnelsonjax]

I'm having a hard time finding the function that will get the player name of the person joining the raid

here's an example of what im trying to accomplish:



if ( event == "RAID_ROSTER_UPDATE") then
QMeUp_Out(name.."has joined the raid")
end



so my question is how to i grab the name of the person joing the raid so my function "QMeUp_Out(name.."has joined the raid")" will show:
("John Doe has joined the raid")

hmmm... theres no direct way i think.
maybe you should save the raidmembers seperately in a datafield. on each raidrosterupdate you should check for changes...
ouhmmm... be aware: raidroster's gonna fired a LOT of times. so its possible to experience some memory-lacks and lags...
