continueloop

[chun914]

here's my code

while 1
...
   for $i = 1 to 10

      if $i=3 then

             continueloop
       
      endif
   next


wend

what i want is then $i = 3 ... the program will skip to the next while loop in stead of the for loop..

isnt' that i can add a loop level in the continue loop function ?

while 1

...

for $i = 1 to 10

if $i=3 then continueloop

next

wend

The ContinueLoop keyword accepts a parameter for the level of nesting that you want to continue. The following exits the For/Next loop and continues the While/WEnd loop:

while 1
_MyFuncOne()
    for $i = 1 to 10
    _MyFuncTwo()
        if $i=3 then
             continueloop 2
        endif
    next
_MyFuncThree()
wend

You could just put ExitLoop and get out of the For/Next loop. Then the script would continue by executing _MyFuncThree() next.

The difference between this and using ContinueLoop is that _MyFuncThree() will not be executed. On hitting the ContinueLoop 2, the script will continue at While 1 and do _MyFuncOne() next.

P.S. Edited to explain difference with ExitLoop.

The continueloop should be exitloop

The exitloop will exit the for/next loop and place you in the while loop

Oops, right you are.

The continueloop should be exitloop

The exitloop will exit the for/next loop and place you in the while loop

So does ContinueLoop 2, but it depends if if you want to continue the loop or restart the loop.
