Internet Connection Help

[Makave2345]

The below code I found here, works great for me. The only thing that I would like to change

is that when a connection is not found.. As it is now, if a connection is not

found, it will say "Not connected" pause, and then continue on through the rest

of my script.. What I would like to have it do, is if a connection is not found,

say "Not connected", pause, then exit without continuing through the rest of my script.

When a connection is found, It works like I would want... But I dont want if to continue

the rest of the script if one is not found. Hope thats clear enough..

Thanks for any help you can give me on this matter.

$INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM          = 0x1
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN            = 0x2
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_PROXY          = 0x4
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM_BUSY     = 0x8
$INTERNET_RAS_INSTALLED             = 0x10
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_OFFLINE        = 0x20
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_CONFIGURED     = 0x40

    $ret = DllCall("WinInet.dll","int","InternetGetConnectedState","int_ptr",0,"int",0)

    If $ret[0] then
       ;check type of connection
        $sX = "Internet connection found!"
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM)      Then $sX = $sX & "MODEM" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN)        Then $sX = $sX & "LAN" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_PROXY)      Then $sX = $sX & "PROXY" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM_BUSY) Then $sX = $sX & "MODEM_BUSY" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_RAS_INSTALLED)         Then $sX = $sX & "RAS_INSTALLED" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_OFFLINE)    Then $sX = $sX & "OFFLINE" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_CONFIGURED) Then $sX = $sX & "CONFIGURED" & @LF
    Else
        $sX = "Not Connected"
    Endif

    MsgBox(4096,$ret[0] & ":" & $ret[1],$sX,10)

Or a even more ideal solution if anybody could help me merge them...

Would be if a connection is found run this and then continue on with the rest of the script.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1) ; Change to OnEvent mode

$started = 1
$mainwindow = GUICreate("Internet Connection Results!", 310, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Internet Connection Found!", 83, 15)
$btnExit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Continue", 120, 50, 65)

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Terminate")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent($btnExit, "_Terminate")

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
    for $i = 6 to 1 Step -1
        GUICtrlSetData($btnExit,"Continue (" & $i & ")")
        sleep(1000)
    Next

    If $started Then
        GUIDelete($mainwindow)
    EndIf
    Exit
WEnd

Func _Terminate()
    $started = 0
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Terminate

If its not found, run this then exit...

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1) ; Change to OnEvent mode

$started = 1
$mainwindow = GUICreate("Internet Connection Results!", 310, 100)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Internet Connection Not Found!", 80, 15)
$btnExit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 120, 50, 65)

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Terminate")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent($btnExit, "_Terminate")

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
    for $i = 6 to 1 Step -1
        GUICtrlSetData($btnExit,"Exit (" & $i & ")")
        sleep(1000)
    Next

    If $started Then
        GUIDelete($mainwindow)
    EndIf
    Exit
WEnd

Func _Terminate()
    $started = 0
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Terminate

Well, welcome to the forum ...

I know that everybody has to start from scratch at some point but not putting any effort into learning, you'll get nowhere.

First - you were bumping your post in 40 minutes time which is not allowed around here - please give it a day or so next time.

Second: I will quote you:

What I would like to have it do, is if a connection is not found, say "Not connected", pause, then exit

Let's break this into smaller bits:

- say "Not Connected"

How would you accomplish that? MsgBox maybe?

- pause

Sleep?

- exit

This one is more than obvious because the command is .... Exit

I am all about helping people to learn but when I see laziness that drives me nuts.

So, considering what I have specified above, the result would be:

$INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM          = 0x1
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN            = 0x2
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_PROXY          = 0x4
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM_BUSY     = 0x8
$INTERNET_RAS_INSTALLED             = 0x10
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_OFFLINE        = 0x20
$INTERNET_CONNECTION_CONFIGURED     = 0x40

    $ret = DllCall("WinInet.dll","int","InternetGetConnectedState","int_ptr",0,"int",0)

    If $ret[0] then
       ;check type of connection
        $sX = "Internet connection found!"
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM)      Then $sX = $sX & "MODEM" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_LAN)        Then $sX = $sX & "LAN" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_PROXY)      Then $sX = $sX & "PROXY" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_MODEM_BUSY) Then $sX = $sX & "MODEM_BUSY" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_RAS_INSTALLED)         Then $sX = $sX & "RAS_INSTALLED" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_OFFLINE)    Then $sX = $sX & "OFFLINE" & @LF
        If BitAND($ret[1], $INTERNET_CONNECTION_CONFIGURED) Then $sX = $sX & "CONFIGURED" & @LF
        MsgBox(0, "Result:", $sX)
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "Result:", "Not Connected")
        Sleep(2000)
        Exit
    Endif

Well thank you for the help...

Although on your first point.

I was NOT bumping my post.

Simply had another idea and posted it...

Wouldn't have done anygood to bump it since it was still at the top anyway..

As far a laziness goes, i have been working on this one particular thing for

a while now...

I already knew about the sleep and exit commands...

It was the use of the double MsgBox like in your solution that was giving me fits...

I do appreciate the help I just dont appreciate how you assume that you know that

everyone else is taking the lazy way out....

I do appreciate the help I just dont appreciate how you assume that you know that everyone else is taking the lazy way out....

I was only refering to you in this case, not everyone else. Anyway - how could I not think about laziness when the very first AutoIt example is about a messagebox? Message Box is one of the top 10 most used commands and helps alot with debugging, keep that in mind for the future.

You have your solution - problem solved - good luck in your further coding.
