Hi All,

I know this has been asked a few times but I need help with the general idea with While loops, I have tried GUIOnEvent and AdlibRegister but I can't seem to get it to work, ive added all my code (hopefully it will syntax), I have added a comment where I think the code would go but not sure

Thanks Daniel

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

$Title = "Back Online? v1 by Dan"

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Terminate")

GUICreate($Title,300,200)
$sCenter = WinGetClientSize($Title)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Back Online?",0,10, $sCenter[0],50,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont (-1,20)

GUICtrlCreateLabel("Enter The IP Address To Monitor", 0, 60,  $sCenter[0],-1,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont (-1,12)
Global $sIPAddr = GUICtrlCreateInput("",70, 90, $sCenter[0]/2,30,$ES_CENTER)
$sStartPing = GUICtrlCreateButton("Monitor",70,125,$sCenter[0] / 2,25,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Waiting IP...", 120, 175,60)

Func _Ping($ipaddr)
    While 1
      If Ping($ipaddr, 50) Then

          $counter +=1
          if $counter > 10 Then
             MsgBox(64,$Title,"I dont think its coming back?"&@CRLF&"Ill Close")
             ; use ie_create http://localhost/backon.php?status=Offline&ip=$ipaddr
             Exit
          EndIf
          GUICtrlSetData(-1,"Attempt "&$counter)
       EndIf

;;;; Where I suspect the GUI_CLOSE may occur? 

       Sleep(200)
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func _Terminate()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func _Success()
  MsgBox(64,$Title,"Its back up,"&@CRLF&"Ive sent you a notification")
; use ie_create http://localhost/backon.php?status=Backup&ip=$ipaddr

   Exit
EndFunc

When you go into your _Ping function it's stuck in the While loop. If you want to have the gui close, you need to add in code to read the GUIGetMsg again and action on that or have some way to exit the loop to return to the main message loop.

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.

You might like to use  

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent .....

to trap your GUI events and run functions when they are clicked. This frees you from constantly checking for them in a while / case loop. There are some good examples on the GUICtrlSetOnEvent help page. I'm sure there are appropriate use cases for both methods, but I find I always use this method to write GUIs in AutoIt.

Alternatively use AdlibRegister for example: 

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

Global $bPing = False, $iCounter = 0, $Title = "Back Online? v1 by Dan"

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Terminate")

GUICreate($Title,300,200)
$sCenter = WinGetClientSize($Title)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Back Online?",0,10, $sCenter[0],50,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont (-1,20)

GUICtrlCreateLabel("Enter The IP Address To Monitor", 0, 60,  $sCenter[0],-1,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlSetFont (-1,12)
Global $sIPAddr = GUICtrlCreateInput("",70, 90, $sCenter[0]/2,30,$ES_CENTER)
$sStartPing = GUICtrlCreateButton("Monitor",70,125,$sCenter[0] / 2,25,$SS_CENTER)
GUICtrlCreateLabel("Waiting IP...", 120, 175,60)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

AdlibRegister("_Ping")

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
         Case $sStartPing
            If GUICtrlRead($sIPAddr) == "" Then
                MsgBox(64,$Title,"Yeet says hi!")
                GUICtrlSetData($sStartPing, "Monitor")
                $bPing = False
            Else
                GUICtrlSetData($sStartPing, "Monitoring...")
                $bPing = True
            EndIf
   EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _Ping()
    If $bPing = False Then Return
    If Ping(GUICtrlRead($sIPAddr), 50) Then
        _Success();$ipaddr)
    Else
        $iCounter +=1
        if $iCounter > 10 Then
            MsgBox(64,$Title,"I dont think its coming back?"&@CRLF&"Ill Close")
            ; use ie_create http://localhost/backon.php?status=Offline&ip=$ipaddr
            Exit
        EndIf
            GUICtrlSetData(-1,"Attempt "&$iCounter)
       EndIf
EndFunc

Func _Terminate()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func _Success()
  MsgBox(64,$Title,"Its back up,"&@CRLF&"Ive sent you a notification")
; use ie_create http://localhost/backon.php?status=Backup&ip=$ipaddr

Hi All,

Thanks for your replies, after trying each and more Binging I found this article https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/Interrupting_a_running_function

It uses a flag var and GUIOnEventMode

It also is using the Google Dinosaur as its icon

There is the complete code

Thanks again

Daniel
