Recursion level has been exceeded


Recommended Posts

sometimes my script will stop and gives me recursion error.. i have no idea why

 

HotKeySet("+z", "Start")
HotKeySet ("+x", "_Exit")
Opt("MouseCoordMode", 2)
Opt("PixelCoordMode", 2)




While 1
  ToolTip("press SHIFT Z TO START, SHIFT X TO EXIT", 1171, 781,"info",1,1)
Sleep(1000)
WEnd





Func Start()
 
send ("{enter}")
sleep (2000)
Mouseclick("primary", 541, 160, 10,5)
sleep (200)
call ("checkcolor")

EndFunc



func checkcolor)
   while 1
   if pixelgetcolor (522, 466) <> 0xFFFFFF and pixelgetcolor(152,31) = 0xFFFFFF then
       send("{esc}")
       sleep (1000)
else

if pixelgetcolor (522, 466) = 0xFFFFFF and pixelgetcolor(152,31) = 0xFFFFFF then
Mouseclick("primary", 404, 408, 10,5)
sleep (8000)
send ("{enter}")
sleep (6000)
ToolTip("Paused for 4mins to start again", 0, 0)
sleep(240000)
  call ("start")

  Else
 call ("checkcolor")

endif
EndIf
wend
endfunc


Func _Exit()
Exit
EndFunc

wolfsnow11,

Welcome to the AutoIt forums.

You are repeatedly calling the checkcolor function from within the function itself - this is called recursion and usually leads to tears at bedtime. You might find the Recursion tutorial in the Wiki useful reading.

P.S And looking at your code, you might want to read the Forum rules as well!

wolfsnow11,

You do not need a "workaround" - you need to recast your code so that you do not call functions from within themselves.

wolfsnow11,

No, that will suffer the same problem because you are still calling functions from within themselves - you need to let functions finish first.

With all the recursive calls the internal logic of the script is a bit confusing, so what exactly are you trying to do when you run it? If I can understand that, then I can see how the script might be structured to avoid recursion problems.

wolfsnow11,

I think this might be what you are looking for:

HotKeySet("+z", "Start")
HotKeySet("+x", "_Exit")

Opt("MouseCoordMode", 2)
Opt("PixelCoordMode", 2)

; Set a timestamp for the tooltip
Global $nTip_Time = TimerInit()

; Create a timestamp to check for the pause between runs
Global $nStart_Time

While 1
    ; If more than 1 sec has elapsed
    If TimerDiff($nTip_Time) > 1000 Then
        ; Fire tooltip
        ToolTip("press SHIFT Z TO START, SHIFT X TO EXIT", 1171, 781, "info", 1, 1)
        ; Reset timestamp
        $nTip_Time = TimerInit()
    EndIf
    ; But still sleep a while to keep the CPU cool
    Sleep(10)

WEnd

Func Start()

    ConsoleWrite("Start code running" & @CRLF)
    ; Run the colour check code
    checkcolor() ; No need to use Call - just use the function name

    ; Wait until the timer has run for 4 mins
    Do
        Sleep(10)
    Until TimerDiff($nStart_Time) > 240000

    ; And now run the code again

EndFunc   ;==>Start

Func checkcolor()
    While 1
        If PixelGetColor(522, 466) <> 0xFFFFFF And PixelGetColor(152, 31) = 0xFFFFFF Then
            Send("{esc}")
            Sleep(1000)
            ; We stay in the loop until the condition is not true
        Else
            ; Now we do a second check
            If PixelGetColor(522, 466) = 0xFFFFFF And PixelGetColor(152, 31) = 0xFFFFFF Then
                MouseClick("primary", 404, 408, 10, 5)
                Sleep(8000)
                Send("{enter}")
                Sleep(6000)

                ToolTip("Paused for 4mins to start again", 0, 0)

                ; Set timestamp for the next run
                $nStart_Time = TimerInit()

                ; Go back to the Start function which called this one
                Return

            EndIf

            ; If the check is not true then say in this function and run the loop again

        EndIf
    WEnd
EndFunc   ;==>checkcolor


Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Exit
