jamesband Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 Func WaitForAnyWin( $zwingroup , $ztimeout ) $zwinlist = StringSplit( $zwingroup , "," ) $ztimer = TimerInit() While TimerDiff( $ztimer ) < ( $ztimeout * 1000 ) For $x = 1 to $win[0] If WinExists( $zwinlist[$x] , "" ) then Return $x next Sleep( 100 ) Wend Return -1 EndFunc The above code is a little function I created to wait for any of several windows to open. I created this out of necessity, of course. So there it is and here is an example of how to call it: $retvalue = WaitForAnyWin( "Notepad.exe,Internet Explorer,Paint" , 15 ) The above call cause the function to wait for up to 15 seconds for Notepad, Internet Explorer, or Paint to open. If one of the opens, then the number of it's place in the list is returned. If the function times out, then -1 is returned. So, lets say that Paint is opened within 15 seconds of the call. In this instance, a value of 3 (number) would be returned. I hope it helps someone. I have found it very useful for intercepting error windows. If you prefer to use milliseconds instead, just remove the '* 1000' from the 'While' line! JamesBand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0uter Posted April 29, 2005 Share Posted April 29, 2005 (edited) congrats on your first script that you posted here. it looks nice. impoved it a bit since there was an error w/ ur variables made the timeout optional. (default is forever) it now also returns an array [0] = index number [1] = search string [2] = full title of the found window expandcollapse popupFunc WaitForAnyWin($s_zwingroup, $i_ztimeout = 0) ;declaring local vars Local $av_ret[3] Local $as_zwinlist = StringSplit($s_zwingroup, ",") Local $v_ztimer = TimerInit() ;infinite loop If $i_ztimeout = 0 Then While 1 For $i_x = 1 To $as_zwinlist[0] If WinExists($as_zwinlist[$i_x]) Then ;wrinting and returning the array $av_ret[0] = $i_x $av_ret[1] = $as_zwinlist[$i_x] $av_ret[2] = WinGetTitle($as_zwinlist[$i_x]) Return $av_ret EndIf Next Sleep(100) WEnd EndIf ;timeout loop While TimerDiff($v_ztimer) < $i_ztimeout For $i_x = 1 To $as_zwinlist[0] If WinExists($as_zwinlist[$i_x]) Then ;wrinting and returning the array $av_ret[0] = $i_x $av_ret[1] = $as_zwinlist[$i_x] $av_ret[2] = WinGetTitle($as_zwinlist[$i_x]) Return $av_ret EndIf Next Sleep(100) WEnd Return -1 EndFunc ;==>WaitForAnyWin ; test peice ;$i = WaitForAnyWin("E:\") ;msgbox(0, '', $i[0] & @CRLF & $i[1] & @CRLF & $i[2]) Edited April 29, 2005 by w0uter My UDF's:;mem stuff_Mem;ftp stuff_FTP ( OLD );inet stuff_INetGetSource ( OLD )_INetGetImage _INetBrowse ( Collection )_EncodeUrl_NetStat_Google;random stuff_iPixelSearch_DiceRoll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
