## Description

```
0x5FF9A878C3D115B8     (by Disquse)

Use this to get the category of a ped component.
if your player is mp_male replace "VALUE" with false, and if its mp_female replace it with true.
int category = Function.Call<int>((Hash)0x5FF9A878C3D115B8, hash, VALUE, true);
```

## Usage

### Lua

```lua
local retval = GetShopItemComponentCategory(componentHash, metapedType, isMP)

-- always available, by hash
local retval = Citizen.InvokeNative(0x5FF9A878C3D115B8, componentHash, metapedType, isMP, Citizen.ResultAsInteger())
```

### JavaScript

```js
const retval = GetShopItemComponentCategory(componentHash, metapedType, isMP);

// by hash
const retval = Citizen.invokeNative('0x5FF9A878C3D115B8', componentHash, metapedType, isMP, Citizen.returnResultAnyway(), Citizen.resultAsInteger());
```

### C#

```csharp
int retval = Function.Call<int>((Hash)0x5FF9A878C3D115B8, componentHash, metapedType, isMP);
```

- Hash parameters: the named function also accepts a string and hashes it for you; `Citizen.InvokeNative` needs the number — pass `joaat("name")` or a backtick literal like `` `name` ``.
- The name is a community guess and may change. If the named call is missing in your client build, use `InvokeNative` with the hash — it always works.
