Restart from a preset point

[PINTO1927]

Hi guys,

I would like to create a button which restarts the script from a set point from me..

Unfortunately with:

Run(FileGetShortName(@AutoItExe) & " " & FileGetShortName(@ScriptFullPath))

I repeated everything the script , however I need to do it again from a point that I imposed..

Thank's..

@PINTO1927 it is a bit difficult to give more than generic advice as you didn't post your script, but why not break your script into functions, and then use the button to call the appropriate one?

[PINTO1927]

an example to call a function from a button?

[JLogan3o13]

Yes, in the help file for GUICtrlCreateButton. You can easily modify the example script to call your function. OR, you could post your script as I mentioned above, so we're not having to guess at what you're trying to do

[PINTO1927]

#include <Array.au3>
Global $sFileToCheck = "C:\temp\test.txt"
Global $bFileChanged = False
Global $sFileDateTime = _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck))
AdlibRegister("_CheckFile", 250)

; GUI creation etc goes here

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Form)
While 1
    If $bFileChanged Then
        MsgBox(0, "Info", "File has changed")
        $sFileDateTime = _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck))
        $bFileChanged = False
    EndIf
    ; It must start from here
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case...
        Case...
        Case...
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _CheckFile()
    If $sFileDateTime <> _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck)) Then $bFileChanged = True
EndFunc   ;==>_CheckFile

I have shown you the point of departure must start

That's great @PINTO1927, now how about showing what you have tried on your own, given the example I pointed you to in the help file? This is not a forum where you put in a request and someone barfs up the code for you. We're happy to help, but you need to at least try on your own.

Here the solution for your script:

expandcollapse popup

#include <Array.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Global $sFileToCheck = "test.txt"
Global $sFileDateTime = _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck))


    ; Create a GUI with various controls.
    Global $hGUI = GUICreate("Example", 300, 200)

    ; Create a button control.
    Global $idFast = GUICtrlCreateButton("Fast Restart", 210, 10, 190, 25)

    ; Display the GUI.
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)


Global $bFileChanged = False

While 1
    If $bFileChanged Then
        MsgBox(0, "Info", "File has changed")
        $sFileDateTime = _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck))
        $bFileChanged = False
        MsgBox(0,'Restart needed','Fast restart will be done!',1)
    EndIf
    ; It continues here or did you see the MsgBox without changing file?????
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $idFast
            AdlibRegister("_CheckFile", 1000)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _CheckFile()
    If $sFileDateTime <> _ArrayToString(FileGetTime($sFileToCheck)) Then $bFileChanged = True
    AdlibUnRegister('_CheckFile')
EndFunc   ;==>_CheckFile

Making even as much sence as your script.
