Atomic Clock

[scintilla4evr]

I want to introduce you simple atomic clock.

It retreives data from http://www.atomic-clock.org.uk/atomic-clock.php.

Code:

#ce

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <IE.au3>

Global $sURL = "http://www.atomic-clock.org.uk/atomic-clock.php"

$hGUI = GUICreate("Atomic Clock", 300, 100)
$cidTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0, 0, 300, 100)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 58)
GUISetState()

$oIE = _IECreate($sURL, 0, 0)
AdlibRegister("QuickClose", 1)
AdlibRegister("Timer", 1)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case -3
            ExitLoop
    EndSwitch
WEnd

AdlibUnRegister("QuickClose")
AdlibUnRegister("Timer")
_IEQuit($oIE)

Func QuickClose()
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then
        AdlibUnRegister("QuickClose")
        AdlibUnRegister("Timer")
        _IEQuit($oIE)
        Exit
    EndIf
EndFunc

Func Timer()
    $oTimeObj = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "anzeige_zeit")
    $sTime = _IEPropertyGet($oTimeObj, "innertext")
    GUICtrlSetData($cidTime, $sTime)
    $oTimeObj = 0
EndFunc

If someone asks, why you need this, say:

BECAUSE NO ONE HAS.

scintilla4evr,

Looking at the web page the tab for browser updates time as well. So why not update the Window Title with the time as well.

Also cleaned up the code a little. Didn't show the GUI until after webpage is created that way the GUI isn't empty while waiting on information. Also since it is a simple code removed includes and just replaced with value.

#ce
#include <IE.au3>
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)
GUICreate("Atomic Clock", 300, 100, -1, -1, -1, 0x02000000)
$cidTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0, 0, 300, 100)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 58)
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.atomic-clock.org.uk/atomic-clock.php", 0, 0)
AdlibRegister("Timer", 100)
GUISetState()

While 1
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then ExitLoop
WEnd

AdlibUnRegister("Timer")
_IEQuit($oIE)

Func Timer()
    $oTimeObj = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "anzeige_zeit")
    $sTime = _IEPropertyGet($oTimeObj, "innertext")
    GUICtrlSetData($cidTime, $sTime)
    WinSetTitle("Atomic Clock", "", $sTime & " : Atomic Clock")
EndFunc

Rogue5099,

 

Also since it is a simple code removed includes and just replaced with value

Very bad coding practice and not to be encouraged. Use the variable names as then you will not be looking at the code in a few months (or even days if you reach a certain age) and thinking: "WTF does that mean?".

Very bad coding practice and not to be encouraged. Use the variable names as then you will not be looking at the code in a few months (or even days if you reach a certain age) and thinking: "WTF does that mean?".

Undertandable, so here  :

 

#include <IE.au3>
Global Const $WS_EX_COMPOSITED = 0x02000000
Global Const $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE = -3
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)
GUICreate("Atomic Clock", 300, 100, -1, -1, -1, $WS_EX_COMPOSITED)
$cidTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0, 0, 300, 100)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 58)
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.atomic-clock.org.uk/atomic-clock.php", 0, 0)
AdlibRegister("Timer", 100)
GUISetState()

While 1
    If GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd

AdlibUnRegister("Timer")
_IEQuit($oIE)

Func Timer()
    $oTimeObj = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "anzeige_zeit")
    $sTime = _IEPropertyGet($oTimeObj, "innertext")
    GUICtrlSetData($cidTime, $sTime)
    WinSetTitle("Atomic Clock", "", $sTime & " : Atomic Clock")
EndFunc
