How to Running Program on a background

[Jooshxp]

Hello,

Sorry for the past.

i want to know how to running program on a background.

so i can running another program again.

so like this :
Run "Notepad"
Send ("Hello")

but, i want to running it and still can browsing on a website.

also, how to WinWait or WinExist or WinActive if a program can't detected with autoit.
i make like this :

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

example ()

Func Example ()
Run (""C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"")

WinWait ( "Mozilla Firefox", "", 10 )

If WinExists ( "Mozilla Firefox") Then
   MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Mozilla Firefox is Running")
Else
   MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Mozilla Firefox Not Running")
EndIf

EndFunc

But, when i try to Running it, msgbox is always showing Mozilla Firefox not Opened.

 

can anyone help ?

Thank's

"Mozilla Firefox(x86)"

isn't a path to a runable EXE, also the syntax of the run function is wrong. I suggest to study helpfile for getting basic understanding of the AutoIt syntax.

ControlSend and ControlClick. If you're wanting to do stuff on the web in the background then look at The FireFox UDF, Chrome UDf, or IE UDF.

The current path&program in the run() statement is still wrong as it contains 2 double quotes at start and end which gives you an error.
What about you first try the script and try correcting it before posting other questions?

already make it,

lol

can i have another question here ??
So, if i'm make infinite loop, and after 5 minutes it will do another things like this :

Func Start ()
    While 1 = 1
    MouseMove ( 1024, 768 )
    MouseClick ("Left", 1024, 768)
    Sleep (5000)
    WEnd
EndFunc

So, after the Func Start is Running, then after 5 minutes later it do another.

it can ? lol

Sorry if i can't ask here or ask that

Using a timer you can dictate how long a function can run, like this example.

Global Const $TIMEOUT = 1 ; Timeout in minutes

Example()
Func Example()
    Local $iTimeoutInMilis = ($TIMEOUT * 60) * 1000 ; Multiple timeout by 60 to get the seconds, then by 1000 to the miliseconds. Since the difference returned from TimerDiff is miliseconds
    Local $iDifference = 0
    Local $iTimer = TimerInit()
    While ($iDifference < $iTimeoutInMilis)
        $iDifference = TimerDiff($iTimer)
        Local $iMilis = ($iTimeoutInMilis - $iDifference)
        Local $iSecsRemain = Mod($iMilis / 1000, 60)
        Local $iMinsRemain = Mod($iMilis / 1000 / 60, 60)
        ToolTip("Current in loop for " & StringFormat("%02i:%02i:%02i", Floor($iDifference / 60000), Floor($iDifference / 1000), Mod($iDifference, 1000)) & @CRLF & _
                "Time remaining until Example ends: " & StringFormat("%02i:%02i:%02i", $iMinsRemain, $iSecsRemain, Mod($iMilis, 1000)), 0, 0)
        Sleep(200)
    WEnd
    MsgBox("", "Exited", "Reached the " & $TIMEOUT & " minute timeout. Example() has exited")
EndFunc   ;==>Example

Or simply an AdlibRegister() statement to perform a UDF after the specified time?

    WEnd
    MsgBox("", "Exited", "Reached the " & $TIMEOUT & " minute timeout. Example() has exited")
EndFunc   ;==>Example

 

how about like this :
Func > Timer > back to Func again and repeat again again and again ??

can like that ?

Jos

Yes, after the specified time like >
Function running on 5 minutes > after 5 minutes it is do another function sleep 1s / more then back to the function 1st.

 

So Like This an Example i have 2 Func
 

Hotkeyset [{"F1"}] "Start"

Func Start ()

While 1 = 1

MouseMove ( 700, 600 )

MouseClick ("Left" 700, 600)

WEnd

EndFunc

Func B ()

MouseMove ( 500, 500 )

Send ({"ESC"})

MouseClick ("Left", 500, 300 )

EndFunc

So What i mean is First Running Function Start after 5 Minutes Run Func B one time then back again to Function Start.

It Can ??

Thank's
