If only running once

[Remo1075]

Hello all,

I'm sure this is a very simple fix but I just can't see it. After the gui/_func() closes it runs the next bit of code below which runs fine but only once. If I hit "No" answer 7 it should run the func() again then run in to the below code yet again. But the 2nd time around it seems to skip the if $answer = 7 bit and go to the setup.exe. It should continue to run through the If statement and call the Func() again as long as I keep selecting NO.

;If CRC32 = 695689BD then pop up a box to ask if you are sure, if yes then continue on, if no then call _func()
Global $sFile = @WindowsDir & "\Config.xml"
Global $sData
Global $answer
$sData = _CRC32ForFile($sFile)
If $sData = "695689BD" Then
$answer = MsgBox(68, "File hash check is " & $sData , "Only English will be installed, are you sure?" & @CRLF & _
                                                      "Nur Englisch wird installiert, sind Sie sicher?")
EndIf


If $answer = 7 Then ;No
_Func()
EndIf
If $answer = 2 Then ;Cancel
Exit
EndIf

;Execute the script with all param
;run some setup.exe

If you want it to keep calling _Func() until $answer = 2 use this:

;If CRC32 = 695689BD then pop up a box to ask if you are sure, if yes then continue on, if no then call _func()
Global $sFile = @WindowsDir & "\Config.xml"
Global $sData
Global $answer
$sData = _CRC32ForFile($sFile)

If $sData = "695689BD" Then
    Do
        _Func()
    Until $answer = 2
EndIf

Func _Func() ; I didn't see a _Func in your code so just added this.
    $answer = MsgBox(68, "File hash check is " & $sData , "Only English will be installed, are you sure?" & @CRLF & _
                                                          "Nur Englisch wird installiert, sind Sie sicher?")
EndFunc

; Run some setup.exe

Clearly, in this case the _Func isn't very useful as it's only one command, so you could just put the content directly in the Do ... Until loop.

The function is a GUI that is about 130 lines of code. I don't want to call the msgbox untill $answer = 2 but have it go around again if the user hit's NO again. It seems to do it once then never shows the msgbox the next time around. Calling the main gui func again would always make the value If $sData = "695689BD" as it starts again with a new file. Basicly the code works below that I have, but only once.

maybe you can link your $answer variable to a gui button? if so use a

while 1

loop to call guigetmsg

it will then wait for an answer

if yes or 1 call this function

if no or 2 call another function

when the function is finished it will return to the while 1 loop unless it hits an exit command.

I will try it with guigetmsg quickly.

$answer variable is the variable for the msgbox()

On a msgbox(68, "","") ( shows info icon and YES and NO Button )

Button Pressed Return Value

OK 1

CANCEL 2

ABORT 3

RETRY 4

IGNORE 5

YES 6

NO 7

TRY AGAIN ** 10

CONTINUE ** 11

Because 7 = NO it calls the gui/func again then runs through ALL of the original 1st post code again. But the 2nd time it does not run the If $answer = 7 statement for whatever reason. it just jumps to the end and runs the setup.exe.

$answer = MsgBox(68, "File hash check is " & $sData , "Only English will be installed, are you sure?" & @CRLF & _
                                                      "Nur Englisch wird installiert, sind Sie sicher?")

I don't know if this is correct, but I tend to think of code working like this:

line in script 1

line in script 2

line in script 3

line in script 4

function

Now say at some point (maybe line 2) it calls the function. When the function completes it returns to where it left off and starts running from the next line (line 3)

Yes, yes I'm sure you have hit the nail on the head. It's not a problem with the code, but it's like it's run once and now it's moving on to the next line.
