Stop InetRead in a loop

[OmYcroN]

Can InetRead be stopped in this scenario by pressing a button:

for $i = 0 to n
InetRead(...)
next

?

Yeh use InetGet and just monitor when GUIGetMsg() Returns the ControlID of the "Close" Button. Have a look at my Example to get an idea.

Hi omYcroN,

or you can use HotKeySet()

[guinness]

I read InetGet not InetRead, oh the irony!! I updated previous post.

Hmmm...

So in the While Loop if GuiGetMsg() == $StopBtn it must stop the loop from

for $i = 0 to n InetRead(...) next

How can u stop a loop from outside the loop itself ?

Just a quick thought off the top of my head

If GuiGetMsg() = $StopBtn Then

ExitLoop

EndIf

*edit*

inside your For...Next loop

Correct, but this won't work for InetRead() only InetGet() and when the parameter background is equal to 1.

Snippet from the Function I linked...

$hDownload = InetGet($sURL, $sDirectory, 0, 1)
    If @error Then
        Return SetError(1, $iError, $sFile)
    EndIf
    GUICtrlSetData($iButton, "&Cancel")

    While InetGetInfo($hDownload, 2) = 0
        Switch GUIGetMsg()
            Case -3, $iButton
                GUICtrlSetData($iLabel, "Download Cancelled!")
                $iError = 1
                ExitLoop
        EndSwitch

        $iBytesRead = InetGetInfo($hDownload, 0)
        $iPercentage = $iBytesRead * 100 / $iFileSize
        $sProgressText = "Downloading " & __ByteSuffix($iBytesRead) & " Of " & __ByteSuffix($iFileSize)
        GUICtrlSetData($iLabel, $sProgressText)
        GUICtrlSetData($iProgress, $iPercentage)
        Sleep(100)
    WEnd
    InetClose($hDownload)
