Multiple Sleep cmds ?

[DoctorSLO]

Hi.

I made some program that do some task at the time that it's entered: I enter like 2 hrs and 0 min, and this is multiplied by 60, 60, 1000 .... so I get sleep time.

But what if I want to do more tasks? Like one task for 1 hour and other task for 2 hours ... I can use multiple Sleep(xxx) commands?

Or there is another way?

DoctorSLO,

Perhaps the best way to do this is to set an initial timestamp using TimerInit and then use TimerDiff to decide when to run. Pseudo-code would look something like this:

Input $time1
Input $time2

$start = TimerInit()

While 1

If TimerDiff($start) = $time1 Then Do Task1

If TimerDiff($start) = $time1 Then Do Task2

WEnd

Try something like that and ask again if you have a problem.

see TimerInit and TimerDiff

[DoctorSLO]

Hm ... again something new

OK, I will try to do it with this ... Thanks for advice

Btw. Input cmd doesn't exist ... xD

That is what Pseudo-code means. The code will not detail certain parts of the code that you were not asking about.

Input $time1 can represent many different lines of code from a GUI input to a regular InputBox --- all of the error checking and any reformatting of the variable.

OK, thx for explain, herewasplato

I do some script, but its not work, it sleeps forever ..

#Include <Timers.au3>

$ena = 10000
$dve = 6000

$Time1 = Sleep($ena)
$Time2 = Sleep($dve)

$start = TimerInit()

While 1
    Select
    Case TimerDiff($start) = $Time1
        MsgBox(0, "Time one", "Time ONE")
    Case TimerDiff($start) = $Time2
        MsgBox(0, "Time two", "Time TWO")
        EndSelect
    WEnd
Exit

What I do wrong ?

@DoctorSLO

$init1 = TimerInit()
$init2 = TimerInit()

While 1
$diff1 = TimerDiff($init1)
$diff2 = TimerDiff($init2)
If $init1 >= 1000 then
TrayTip('Sleep', 'Slept 1sec !', 0, 1)
$init1 = TimerInit()
ElseIf $init2 >= 1500 then
TrayTip('Sleep', 'Slept 1,5sec !', 0, 1)
$init2 = TimerInit()
EndIf
WEnd

Not tested.

Cheers, FireFox.

Not tested.

Cheers, FireFox.

Maybe you should? I expected a TimerDiff() in there Edited January 26, 2009 by Jos

[DoctorSLO]

Thx, but this is only showing "Slept 1sec !".

its not working

[DoctorSLO]

Thx, I added TimerDiff() Now look like this:

#Include <Timers.au3>

$init1 = TimerInit()
$init2 = TimerInit()

While 1
If TimerDiff($init1) >= 1000 then
MsgBox(0, "Time one", "time one")
$init1 = TimerInit()
ElseIf TimerDiff($init2) >= 1500 then
MsgBox(0, "Time two", "Time two")
$init2 = TimerInit()
EndIf
WEnd
Exit

But script doesn't exit ... when it comes to time two it starts again ... mybe I must use some killtimer cmd or what ?

@Jos

thanks i cant test it because im on my ipod

@DoctorSLO

post edited, try again

[Jos]

ExitLoop or Exit depending on what you want to do ?

[Aceguy]

there ya go.

Hope you can learn from it

$init = TimerInit()

While 1
if int(TimerDiff($init)/1000) = 5 then
toolTip("Ding!!! 5 Seconds")
elseIf int(TimerDiff($init)/1000) = 10 then
toolTip("Ding!!! 10 Seconds")
ElseIf int(TimerDiff($init)/1000) = 15 then
toolTip('Ding!!! 15 seconds')
elseif int(TimerDiff($init)/1000) = 20 Then
toolTip('')
EndIf
sleep(250)
WEnd

@DoctorSLO

HotKey example :

#Include <Timers.au3>
Global $timer = True
HotKeySet("{F7}", "_TIMERON")
HotKeySet("{F8}", "_TIMEROFF")

$init1 = TimerInit()
$init2 = TimerInit()

While 1
If TimerDiff($init1) >= 1000 and $timer = True then
MsgBox(0, "Time one", "time one")
$init1 = TimerInit()
ElseIf TimerDiff($init2) >= 1500 and $timer = True then
MsgBox(0, "Time two", "Time two")
$init2 = TimerInit()
EndIf
WEnd

Func _TIMERON()
Global $timer = True
EndFunc

Func _TIMEROFF()
Global $timer = False
EndFunc

Not tested

[DoctorSLO]

OK, thx all for help I understand now ...

[Melba23]

DoctorSLO,

Apologies for the Pseudo-code misunderstanding. I had to leave for a while - real life gets in the way sometimes!

Are you happy with what you have got so far from the others who kindly responded?

Edit. I see you are!

Melba23,

No problem, actually now I know what is Pseudo-code
