manit Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 (edited) hi , I intend to write following script (because I want to calculate the availability of internet on my connection . It is so intermittent that drives me crazy .) loop forever { ping -n 1 www.google.com | find /i "reply" #If above command gives string as output . It will be like #Reply from 173.194.36.19: bytes=32 time=44ms TTL=54 #Had there been no internet then above command would produce no output because #Ping request could not find host www.google.com. Please check the name and try again. increment 'tries' variable by 1 increment 'success' variable by 1 if reply received as told above do nothing for 1 minute if user has pressed stop checkmark button then wait till user unselects it } The GUI I can imagine is stop checkmark & two greyed out text field showing number of attempts & sucesses . Please suggest . Edited March 11, 2012 by manit

manit Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 Sorry , that looked like asking for bespoke code with theme as input . I will try & show scaffolding I come up with .
manit Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 So far I created window with start & stop buttons . #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #Include <GuiButton.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("My GUI") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered $btn1 = _GUICtrlButton_Create($hGUI, "START", 10, 10, 100, 50, $BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON) $btn2 = _GUICtrlButton_Create($hGUI, "STOP", 110, 10, 50, 50, $BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; will display an empty dialog box While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop WEnd Somewhere I also saw $Command="cmd /c dir c: /s";<-Your command RunWait($command & ">" & @scriptdir & "output.txt","",@sw_hide) $OutPut = FileRead( @scriptdir & "output.txt",FileGetSize(@scriptdir & "output.txt")) FileDelete( @scriptdir & "output.txt") ;$Output now contain the Console output of $Command which will help me to store command output in variable. How do I associate a function which runs on selecting one of those buttons ?

manit Posted March 14, 2012 Author Posted March 14, 2012 I tried this #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #Include <GuiButton.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("My GUI") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered $btn1 = _GUICtrlButton_Create($hGUI, "START", 10, 10, 100, 50, $BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON) $btn2 = _GUICtrlButton_Create($hGUI, "STOP", 110, 10, 50, 50, $BS_AUTORADIOBUTTON) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; will display an empty dialog box While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop If $msg = $btn1 Then _LetUsRunCommand() WEnd Func _LetUsRunCommand() $command="cmd /c dir c: /s";<-Your command RunWait($command & ">" & @scriptdir & "output.txt","",@sw_hide) $output = FileRead( @scriptdir & "output.txt",FileGetSize(@scriptdir & "output.txt")) ;FileDelete( @scriptdir & "output.txt") ;$Output now contain the Console output of $Command MsgBox ( 0 , "Output of command read is : " , $output) EndFunc Neither output.txt gets created in current folder nor message box appears on selecting start.
BrewManNH Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 Try this instead of using the UDF buttons. #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GuiButton.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("My GUI") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered $btn1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("START", 10, 10, 100, 50) $btn2 = GUICtrlCreateRadio("STOP", 110, 10, 50, 50) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; will display an empty dialog box While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop If $msg = $btn1 Then _LetUsRunCommand() WEnd Func _LetUsRunCommand() $command = "cmd /c dir c: /s";<-Your command RunWait($command & ">" & @ScriptDir & "output.txt", "", @SW_HIDE) $output = FileRead(@ScriptDir & "output.txt", FileGetSize(@ScriptDir & "output.txt")) ;FileDelete( @scriptdir & "output.txt") ;$Output now contain the Console output of $Command MsgBox(0, "Output of command read is : ", $output) EndFunc ;==>_LetUsRunCommand If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

BrewManNH Posted March 17, 2012 Posted March 17, 2012 Once you get it into running your function, you don't have anyway out of the While loop in there. You have the variable to stop it, but you don't have anyway to set it while that loop is running. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

manit Posted March 18, 2012 Author Posted March 18, 2012 Can you suggest a way that in an infinite loop something is checked every time to exit if user has clicked a button ?
manit Posted June 17, 2012 Author Posted June 17, 2012 It has been a while. Recently , I realized that internet connection can be checked by pinging a website . www.example.com is an ideal choice. It seems , yet the question remains as asked before.
