Damein Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Is it possible to put the time to sleep in a var? This doesn't seem to work: Sleep($Var) And I was wondering if it would be possible to do this because I wish to use this snippet in a code: $begin = TimerInit() sleep(3000) $dif = TimerDiff($begin) MsgBox(0,"Time Difference",$dif) And I want to be able to set the time to Sleep myself via a GUI.

Varian Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Yes you can...I use this code to pause a script so that it runs at even hours only (every 2 hours)#include <Date.au3> $TimeToSleep = _RunHourly() ;Sleep($TimeToSleep) Func _RunHourly() Local $CurrentTime, $RunTime, $SleepTime Local $CurrentFriendly, $RunFriendly, $sleepFriendly, $String Local $cHour, $cMin, $cSec, $rHour, $rMin, $rSec, $sHour, $sMin, $sSec $CurrentTime = _TimeToTicks(@HOUR, @MIN, @SEC) If Mod(@HOUR, 2) = 0 Then $RunTime = _TimeToTicks(@HOUR + 2, 0, 0) Else $RunTime = _TimeToTicks(@HOUR + 1, 0, 0) EndIf $SleepTime = $RunTime - $CurrentTime ;#cs $CurrentFriendly = _TicksToTime($CurrentTime, $cHour, $cMin, $cSec) $RunFriendly = _TicksToTime($RunTime, $rHour, $rMin, $rSec) $sleepFriendly = _TicksToTime($SleepTime, $sHour, $sMin, $sSec) $String &= 'Current Time: ' & StringFormat('%02i:%02i:%02i', $cHour, $cMin, $cSec) & @CRLF $String &= 'Run Time: ' & StringFormat('%02i:%02i:%02i', $rHour, $rMin, $rSec) & @CRLF $String &= 'Sleep Time [Friendly]: ' & StringFormat('%02i:%02i:%02i', $sHour, $sMin, $sSec) & @CRLF $String &= 'Sleep Time [Millisecond]s: ' & $SleepTime MsgBox(262144, '', $String) ;#ce Return $SleepTime EndFunc ;==>_RunHourly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
