eagle4life69 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Here is my code. What I have done is check to see if the Window Acrobat is open if it is grab the file name and log it. My co-workers do not like to clock in on jobs and this is how I make sure they do. Problem is that I am sucking the life out of memory and do not want it to lag the system. Can someone please help me optimize the code so it can still check if the window is open and log the job even if it is only open for less than a minute. Here is the basic part of my code "With secure info removed" expandcollapse popupIf _Singleton("Tracker2", 1) = 0 Then Exit #include "Misc.au3" #include <GUIConstants.au3> Opt("TrayIconHide",1) HotKeySet("!+q","Quit") $ini=@ScriptDir & "\tracker2.ini" Local $hQuery, $aRow, $sMsg, $1Query, $bRow, $aResult, $iRows, $iColumns, $iRval AutoItSetOption("WinDetectHiddenText", 1) AutoItSetOption("WinSearchChildren",1) While 1 $var = WinList() For $i = 1 to $var[0][0] $clear=1 $x=0 If $var[$i][0] <> "" AND IsVisible($var[$i][1]) Then If StringInStr($var[$i][0],"Adobe Acrobat") Then $a=StringSplit($var[$i][0]," - ",1) $a=StringLeft($a[1],6) $a=StringSplit($a,".") $job=StringStripWS($a[1],2) If $job="Adobe" Then Else $employee=@ComputerName $hour=(60*@HOUR)+@MIN $info = IniReadSection($ini,$job) If @error=1 Then $info=$hour-90 Else $info=$info[1][1] EndIf $subtract=($hour-$info) If $subtract > '60' Then If $job>'1000' Then ;~ MsgBox(0,$subtract,$job) $now = @MON & "-" & @MDAY & "-" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC $location=@ComputerName ;this is the section where I write to a secure site IniWrite($ini,$job,"Time",$hour) $x=1 EndIf EndIf EndIf EndIf EndIf Next If Not ProcessExists("Acrobat.exe") Then FileDelete($ini) EndIf Sleep(500) WEnd Func Quit() ProcessClose("relaunch.exe") Exit EndFunc Func IsVisible($handle) If BitAnd( WinGetState($handle), 2 ) Then Return 1 Else Return 0 EndIf EndFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 You're running a For... Next loop every 500 milliseconds - that's quite a lot of looping you have going on. I'd offload the Window checking into AdlibRegister and create an event based loop which will sleep until the Adlib callback finds the window you're looking for.

eagle4life69 Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 without rewriting my code can you give me an example on how I would properly write the AdlibRegister call? the help file is not detailed enough. would i write it so the act of looking is in that call? Let me know thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qsek Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) I dont see why this script would have any memory build up. Certainly not when the window is not open. Unless you have any global variable to add stuff into in your final version of your script, i dont see why it should either when the window is open.However i did notice that the process takes about 2% CPU time on a single 4GHz.Could be because you use winlist/for next Loop/StringinStr/isVisible just to check all your windows when you only need to use one command: WinActiveexpandcollapse popupIf _Singleton("Tracker2", 1) = 0 Then Exit #include "Misc.au3" #include <GUIConstants.au3> Opt("TrayIconHide", 1) HotKeySet("!+q", "Quit") $ini = @ScriptDir & "tracker2.ini" Local $hQuery, $aRow, $sMsg, $1Query, $bRow, $aResult, $iRows, $iColumns, $iRval AutoItSetOption("WinDetectHiddenText", 1) AutoItSetOption("WinSearchChildren", 1) Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2) While 1 Sleep(500) $ADhwnd = WinActive("Adobe Acrobat") If $ADhwnd Then ConsoleWrite("found" & @CRLF) $ADTitle = WinGetTitle($ADhwnd) $a = StringSplit($ADTitle, " - ", 1) $a = StringLeft($a[1], 6) $a = StringSplit($a, ".") $job = StringStripWS($a[1], 2) ConsoleWrite($job & @CRLF) If Not ($job = "Adobe") Then $employee = @ComputerName $hour = (60 * @HOUR) + @MIN $info = IniReadSection($ini, $job) If @error = 1 Then $info = $hour - 90 Else $info = $info[1][1] EndIf $subtract = ($hour - $info) If $subtract > '60' Then If $job > '1000' Then $now = @MON & "-" & @MDAY & "-" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC $location = @ComputerName ;this is the section where I write to a secure site IniWrite($ini, $job, "Time", $hour) EndIf EndIf EndIf Sleep(5000); To prevent writing to the ini every 500ms (if window exists) EndIf If Not ProcessExists("Acrobat.exe") Then FileDelete($ini) EndIf Sleep(500) WEnd Func Quit() ProcessClose("relaunch.exe") Exit EndFunc ;==>Quit Func IsVisible($handle) If BitAND(WinGetState($handle), 2) Then Return 1 Else Return 0 EndIf EndFunc ;==>IsVisibleI dont understand your way of logging the time to do any optimization on this part. Script comments would help.Also stripped $x and $clear since not used for anything.

BrewManNH Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Wouldn't something like this be more efficient? expandcollapse popupIf _Singleton("Tracker2", 1) = 0 Then Exit #include "Misc.au3" #include <GUIConstants.au3> Opt("TrayIconHide", 1) HotKeySet("!+q", "Quit") $ini = @ScriptDir & "tracker2.ini" Local $hQuery, $aRow, $sMsg, $1Query, $bRow, $aResult, $iRows, $iColumns, $iRval AutoItSetOption("WinDetectHiddenText", 1) AutoItSetOption("WinSearchChildren", 1) While 1 $var = WinList("Adobe Acrobat") If $var[0][0] > 0 Then $clear = 1 $x = 0 $job = "Adobe" For $I = 1 To $var[0][0] If $var[$I][0] <> "" And IsVisible($var[$I][1]) Then $employee = @ComputerName $hour = (60 * @HOUR) + @MIN $info = IniReadSection($ini, $job) If @error = 1 Then $info = $hour - 90 Else $info = $info[1][1] EndIf $subtract = ($hour - $info) If $subtract > '60' Then If $job > '1000' Then ;~ MsgBox(0,$subtract,$job) $now = @MON & "-" & @MDAY & "-" & @YEAR & " " & @HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC $location = @ComputerName ;this is the section where I write to a secure site IniWrite($ini, $job, "Time", $hour) $x = 1 EndIf EndIf EndIf Next EndIf If Not ProcessExists("Acrobat.exe") Then FileDelete($ini) EndIf Sleep(500) WEnd Func Quit() ProcessClose("relaunch.exe") Exit EndFunc ;==>Quit Func IsVisible($handle) If BitAND(WinGetState($handle), 2) Then Return 1 Else Return 0 EndIf EndFunc ;==>IsVisible I changed your WinList so that it only looks for the window you're interested in, Adobe Acrobat, instead of listing ALL the windows and looking to see if it's there. If it doesn't find the window at all (the first If/Then statement), then bypass all of the rest of the code. Also, your code deletes your INI file as soon as Acrobat is closed, how is it supposed to read the values from it in this script if you keep deleting it? If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

qsek Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 @BrewManNH I think he use some kind of mysql query to write the time to a database in his real script. That ini stuff is just an example for writing the data.
