enaiman Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I've spent some time browsing through what search for "return" brought. Unfortunately I couldn't find an answer ... so ... here I am. How can a function return a value and terminate earlier than its natural end? like this: Func test1() ;some stuff here If $testvalue = 0 Then Return "bad" ; after this Return I would like to quit this function and go back to function another() EndIf .... :function continues here EndFunc Func another() ;something long here ... so I can't call this function again without messing the program If test1() = "bad" Then ;do stuff EndIf ..... EndFunc Sorry for this so generic example but the code I'm working now is darn big and complicated and any try to post it will only bring confusion. The way I've used until now to quit a function was to use a Return without anything ... heh ... once I needed a true return I can't use this anymore. Thanks for help.

/dev/null Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I guess you did not try your own sample, right? Return does exactly that. __________________________________________________________(l)user: Hey admin slave, how can I recover my deleted files?admin: No problem, there is a nice tool. It's called rm, like recovery method. Make sure to call it with the "recover fast" option like this: rm -rf * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enaiman Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 My functions have a similar structure ... the problem is - after returning "bad" the function continued its execution ... I have a "workaround" for this and it needs a global error flag set and it works but unfortunately I have many functions and already many flags (I know the code could be "cleaned" and put into a more compact/organized way ... ) anyway - thanks for advice - I will try again.

Moderators SmOke_N Posted March 19, 2007 Moderators Share Posted March 19, 2007 So add a parameter to the function:another() Func test1($testvalue) If $testvalue = 123456 Then Return "bad" ; after this Return I would like to quit this function and go back to function another() EndIf EndFunc Func another() If test1(123456) = "bad" Then MsgBox(64, 'Info', 'test1() = bad') EndIf EndFunc Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enaiman Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 I am ASHAMED. My appologies for wasting the time to all people who read my message and replied. My bad - The Return statement do exactly what /dev/null said. The return code was in another branch of my script. Thanks and appologies.
