BlockInput

[amer0612]

Hi All

I disable my keyboard and mouse using BlockInput(1) at the start of my script...

But what if something went wrong and the script

did not stop executing (BlockInput(0) function was not reached

therefore not executed)?

Other than Ctrl-Alt-Del, is there other way to stop the execution of the script?

Can anyone give me a piece of code?

Thanks

Gino

I don't think a script will help you. Since you cannot even use your keyboard, because of blocking it.

Maybe you could just restart your pc. but if you already registered it to the registry, try using the safemode.

And manualy delete your application from the registry.

Sorry if i'm wrong

Except Ctrl Alt Del, there's no key can break the BlockInput()

if you want to decrease the bad luck, use a function to Disable BlockInput() if the Mouse haven't move for 10 or 20 secs, or similar that

look at MousePos(), it's will be helpful

Sorry to bump...

Is there a way to block keyboard input but not mouse input?

get a loop to make it's easier, but this's the idea

if _Ispress("20") then
sleep(100)
endif

What about the "Power" key?

Edit: you can always create a program to check if the current program is still running somehow - there are multiple ways to accomplish this - none of them quite simple.

Yes, as it is, it's Powerful

[McGod]

Create an OnAutoitExit Function that will kill blockinput

Opt("OnExitFunc", "KillBlock")

Func KillBlock ()
BlockInput(0)
EndFunc

Actually I am looking for a way to monitor the script...

That is if the execution time of the script exceeds a certain

time it should be terminated....

(ex. if the script is running for more than 30 seconds

terminate the program)

Is there a way for this?

Thanks
