infinet loop running in background

[rot3r]

hello

Im creating an app that download several file.i have problem that when start first download and using a loop to monitor ans update status on a list view , somehow script is frozen and not working.

is ther any way to send loops in background and better way to update listview?

; Wait for the download to complete :
    Do
        $currentDown[0][3]=InetGetInfo($hDownload, $INET_DOWNLOADREAD)
        Sleep(250)
        _GUICtrlListView_DeleteAllItems($idListview)
        _GUICtrlListView_AddArray($idListview,$currentDown )

    Until InetGetInfo($hDownload, $INET_DOWNLOADCOMPLETE)

Assume this is not the total script and yes the script will "hang in this loop" until this single download is done.

is there anyway to overcome this situation?

Sure, but you will have to share a script that demonstrates the issue so we can see what you are exactly doing and how to implement this.

I answer something very similar recently :

No multi-threading is required in this case as the download is performed already in the background, so all that is required is to store the handles of each submitted download in an array, and then loop through this array getting the status for each active download and handle the ended sessions.

i already sent the download to background,but the way you mentioned is fine if we just have download progress , but because the download may take time i want to other aspect of gui can work for example user can add more download to list.

Global $hDownload = InetGet($url , @ScriptDir&"\"&$sFileName&$sExtension, BitOR( $INET_IGNORESSL, $INET_BINARYTRANSFER), $INET_DOWNLOADBACKGROUND)

Understand, hence my question for a more complete script so we can assist.
