hi

i need a program starter to control several programs

sets up dynamically the button controls from ini file too, so this may be useful for someone..

this is my first little start on it, you need to setup an "settings.ini" file as described in top of file

; setup ini file like "settings.ini"

#cs
[Settings1]
name=irfanview
verz_exe=C:\Programme\IrfanView\i_view32.exe
verz_ausfuerung=C:\Programme\IrfanView
autostart=1

[Settings2]
name=Total Commander
verz_exe=C:\Programme\totalc11md\TOTALCMD.EXE
verz_ausfuerung=C:\Programme\totalcmd\
autostart=1
#ce


#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <Process.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

; ------------------- Options ----------------------------------

; Options , nicht den dialog mit esc schliessen
Opt("GUICloseOnESC", 0)
Opt("RunErrorsFatal", 0) ;; silent ; set @error to 1 !!

Global $glob_inilocation = @ScriptDir & "\settings.ini" ; generelles INI - einzelne inis folgen noch !

Global $glob_max_processes = 100; start a max number --

Dim $process_id[$glob_max_processes];       ## process iD für start / stop.
Dim $process_name[$glob_max_processes];     ## name "view.exe"
Dim $process_path[$glob_max_processes];     ## \pathname\..
Dim $process_running[$glob_max_processes];      ## runnning true / false??
Dim $process_autostart[$glob_max_processes] ; ## Autostart it ??

Dim $checkbox[$glob_max_processes];     ## checkbox if process is to be started ?
Dim $btn_start[$glob_max_processes];        ## button start this process
Dim $btn_stop[$glob_max_processes];     ## button stop this process

Global $glob_nbr_entries = 0; total number in array ..

love2u,

Did you notice that this thread dates from over 6 years ago and that the OP has not been online for over 2 years? :huh:

Please do not necro-post like this again - just open a new thread and link to the old one if it is absoutely necessary for understanding the problem. We ask you to do this for two main reasons:

 

- 1. The language advances and the functionality might well be included in core or UDF code by now

- 2. The changes in language syntax mean that it is likely that code from more than a couple of years ago may well not run under the current release interpreter without significant modification - as you have proved above. ;)

Public_Domain.png.2d871819fcb9957cf44f4514551a2935.png Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind

Open spoiler to see my UDFs:

Spoiler

ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columns
ChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listing
Date_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language used
ExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBox
GUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUI
GUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable frames
GUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView items
GUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeView
Marquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIs
NoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxes
Notify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the display
Scrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single command
StringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit text
Toast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area
