Return Values?


Recommended Posts

Hi, Very new to this so sorry if this is a little stupid. Just starting a script to open my web browser and am using “winwaitactive” with a timeout value which I understand. However how do I capture the “Return Value” which according to the help is “0” if the timeout fails, so I can redirect the script?

WinWaitActive ( "title" [, "text" [, timeout]] )

Parameters

title The title of the window to check. See Title special definition.

text [optional] The text of the window to check.

timeout [optional] Timeout in seconds

Return Value

Success: Returns handle to the requested window.

Failure: Returns 0 if timeout occurred.

$returnvalue = WinWaitActive ( "title", "text", 5)

$returnvalue now holds the return value from WinWaitActive

If the window does not become active within 5 seconds the value will be 0

Else it will be a handle to that window.

or..

Global $Filler = WinExists("Google - Mozilla Firefox", "")

If $Filler =  1 Then
    MsgBox(0,"Testing","Firefox exists, return value: " & $Filler)
Elseif $Filler = 0 Then
    MsgBox(0,"Testing","Firefox inexistent, return value: " & $Filler)
EndIf
