how to have autoit to click the "timeout" message box

[netnet227]

i have a GUI application in which includes validation feature thru another server. but after 30 sec, if no response, the frontend will pop up "timeout" message box.

i want to capture it and click it without influence the execution of the script.

for the adlib, i already use it for other purpose and its time gap is as long as 5 min coz i won't have it hog to much cpu.

so the problem is that is there any way to dismiss it without using the adlib functino?

Just set up your AdLib function as a dispatcher that checks timers and does everything that needs doing. For example, it can run every 250ms and test for your window, and then check a TimerInit() variable for the 5min to do the other function. One AdLib can check many different timers this way.

You could also attach additional timers to a window with _Timer_SetTimer().

Another problem is that the msg box itself blocks the execution of my adlib function. so i still can't get rid of it anyway.

That's only true if the MsgBox() is from the same script (process). Just add a timeout value to the MsgBox() or remove it completely.

If you must pop the message and continue processing, create a custom GUI instead of using MsgBox().

Failing that, use Run() to execute just the MsgBox() line of code using the following format:

Run(@AutoItExe & " /AutoIt3ExecuteLine 'MsgBox(64, ""Title"", ""Message"")'")
