Rogue5099 Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Trying to run a function every 5 mins. If @MIN = "00" Or @MIN = "05" Or @MIN = "10" Or @MIN = "15" Or @MIN = "20" Then.... Got to be an easier way! My projects: Inventory / Mp3 Inventory, Computer Stats
iamtheky Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 5 minutes from the last time the function ran might be better accomplished with timerinit and timerdiff. Because in your current example if your function takes 4 minutes to run, it would only wait a minute then run again. ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__)
Rogue5099 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) That's a good idea. The function only takes 5 secs MAX to run. I want it to run on the MIN though not loose any seconds over time. If StringInStr(@MIN, "5", 0, 2, 1) = 2 Or StringInStr(@MIN, "0", 0, 2, 1) = 2 Then Above works only on 5 mins not on the min ending in 0 Edited April 9, 2011 by rogue5099 My projects: Inventory / Mp3 Inventory, Computer Stats
Rogue5099 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Found it: If Mod(@MIN, 5) = 0 Then psbeau 1 My projects: Inventory / Mp3 Inventory, Computer Stats
darkjohn20 Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) $iMinutes = 5 $hTimer = TimerInit() While 1 If TimerDiff($hTimer) > ($iMinutes * 60000) Then ConsoleWrite("5 minutes have passed!" & @CRLF) $hTimer = TimerInit() EndIf WEnd Edited April 9, 2011 by darkjohn20

sahsanu Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Found it: If Mod(@MIN, 5) = 0 Then If you want to run at 00, 05, 10, 15... then this script will do: Global $switch = 0 While 1 IF Mod(@MIN,5) = 0 Then If $switch = 0 Then ConsoleWrite("It is time to run: " & @MIN & @CRLF) ;Here goes your stuff $switch = 1 EndIf Else $switch = 0 EndIf Sleep(250) WEnd
Rogue5099 Posted April 10, 2011 Author Posted April 10, 2011 Why not use AdlibRegister?I am sending an email and I need it on the 5's not any other time to check for errors in system.If I use AdlibRegister then it goes from whenever the script is started.
