cookiemonster Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Hey, So for this question ive knocked together the following quick script which has a debug checkbox at the bottom right, if its turned on then its sets the two debug variables so they are ' /k ' to keep the command window open at end of the command being ran, and 'SW_SHOW' to show the command box, the first debug variable is fine, i seem to be having trouble with it calling @SW_SHOW or @SW_HIDE from a variable Anyone got any ideas? expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> $Main = GUICreate("Command Debug",600,480,-1,-1,-1) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $button_notepad = GUICtrlCreateButton("Open Notepad", 484, 74, 89, 20) Global $checkbox_debug = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Debug Mode", 495, 400) Global $var_debugmode = " /c " Global $var_debugmode2 = "@SW_SHOW" While (1) $nMsg=GUIGetMsg() switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $button_notepad Button() Case $checkbox_debug If _IsChecked($checkbox_debug) Then ;Turn on debug mode $var_debugmode = " /k " $var_debugmode2 = "@SW_HIDE" MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode on, all cmd windows will be shown and stay open") Else ;Turn off debug mode $var_debugmode = " /c " $var_debugmode2 = "@SW_SHOW" MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode off, all cmd windows will be hidden") EndIf EndSwitch Wend Func Button() $cmd_notepad = RunWait(@ComSpec & $var_debugmode & 'notepad.exe', "", $var_debugmode2) EndFunc ;==>Button Func _IsChecked($iControlID) Return BitAND(GUICtrlRead($iControlID), $GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED EndFunc ;==>_IsChecked ;RunWait Cmd comspec Information: ; /k keeps it there on new line ; /c closes after complete ; @SW_SHOW shows the command window ; @SW_HIDE hides the command window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution BrewManNH Posted March 17, 2014 Solution Share Posted March 17, 2014 Try removing the quotes from around the macros @SW_HIDE and @SW_SHOW and see if that works. 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.

cookiemonster Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 So I now have: expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> $Main = GUICreate("Command Debug",600,480,-1,-1,-1) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $button_notepad = GUICtrlCreateButton("Open Notepad", 484, 74, 89, 20) Global $checkbox_debug = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Debug Mode", 495, 400) Global $var_debugmode = " /c " Global $var_debugmode2 = @SW_HIDE While (1) $nMsg=GUIGetMsg() switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $button_notepad Button() Case $checkbox_debug If _IsChecked($checkbox_debug) Then ;Turn on debug mode $var_debugmode = " /k " $var_debugmode2 = @SW_HIDE MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode on, all cmd windows will be shown and stay open") Else ;Turn off debug mode $var_debugmode = " /c " $var_debugmode2 = @SW_SHOW MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode off, all cmd windows will be hidden") EndIf EndSwitch Wend Func Button() $cmd_notepad = RunWait(@ComSpec & $var_debugmode & 'notepad.exe', "", $var_debugmode2) EndFunc ;==>Button Func _IsChecked($iControlID) Return BitAND(GUICtrlRead($iControlID), $GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED EndFunc ;==>_IsChecked ;RunWait Cmd comspec Information: ; /k keeps it there on new line ; /c closes after complete ; @SW_SHOW shows the command window ; @SW_HIDE hides the command window but that still doesnt seem to work. When I turn debug on, and click the button, notepad opens, but i then cant close the command debug program, its stuck cause of this variable I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiemonster Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 oh I was being stupid and putting the wrong /c or /k on the wrong varible changes. This works: expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> $Main = GUICreate("Command Debug",600,480,-1,-1,-1) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $button_notepad = GUICtrlCreateButton("Open Notepad", 484, 74, 89, 20) Global $checkbox_debug = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Debug Mode", 495, 400) Global $var_debugmode = " /c " Global $var_debugmode2 = @SW_HIDE While (1) $nMsg=GUIGetMsg() switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $button_notepad Button() Case $checkbox_debug If _IsChecked($checkbox_debug) Then ;Turn on debug mode $var_debugmode = " /k " $var_debugmode2 = @SW_SHOW MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode on, all cmd windows will be shown and stay open") Else ;Turn off debug mode $var_debugmode = " /c " $var_debugmode2 = @SW_HIDE MsgBox(0, "TEST ANSWER", "You have just turned debug mode off, all cmd windows will be hidden") EndIf EndSwitch Wend Func Button() $cmd_notepad = RunWait(@ComSpec & $var_debugmode & 'notepad.exe', "", $var_debugmode2) EndFunc ;==>Button Func _IsChecked($iControlID) Return BitAND(GUICtrlRead($iControlID), $GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED EndFunc ;==>_IsChecked ;RunWait Cmd comspec Information: ; /k keeps it there on new line ; /c closes after complete ; @SW_SHOW shows the command window ; @SW_HIDE hides the command window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
