how to end the While Loop after the specific time?

[SoftVoile]

hi,

how to end the While Loop after the specific time?

i have read about

TimerInit()

TimerDiff()

but it's not working for me, or maybe i am doing something wrong with it.

i want to run the 'While' Loop for 5mins and then exit.

now, how to do it?

see help timerdiff.

you should set

$begin = TimerInit () before while Loop

and in while Loop

$dif = TimerDiff ($begin)

if $dif > 300000 then exitloop

thanks now working

$begin = TimerInit ()
        While 1
            $dif = TimerDiff ($begin)
            if $dif > 5000 then exitloop
        WEnd

Create a timed variable. And instead of doing While 1, make it react to the time.

PSEUDO:
While myTimer < myDiffTime

$min = @min
While 1
    If $min = $min +5 then ExitLoop
WEnd
