Hi,
To give more context on the issue, the following lines are not
working(alarm function is being called ) but later runs fine
NOT WORKING!!!!! (recursive call thro alarm)
------------------------
delete_sub(){
.
.
.
.
if($heap->{RESULT}->{delete_sub_status} ne 'deleted'){
$heap->{next_delete_alarm_time} = int(time())+30;
# $_[KERNEL]->alarm(get_del_status =>
$heap->{next_delete_alarm_time}) if($end_time >= time);
$_[KERNEL]->alarm(delete_sub =>
$heap->{next_delete_alarm_time}) if($end_time >= time);
$heap->{RESULT}->{delete_sub_status_counter}++;
}
}
WORKING!!!(recursive call thro alarm)
------------------
get_poll_status(){
.
.
.
if($heap->{RESULT}->{poll_success} != 1){
# while($end_time >= time){
$heap->{next_poll_alarm_time} = int(time())+30;
$_[KERNEL]->alarm(get_poll_status =>
$heap->{next_poll_alarm_time}) if($end_time >= time);
$heap->{RESULT}->{poll_status_error_counter}++;
# }
}else{
$_[KERNEL]->yield("get_delivery_status",$pollquerystring);
}
}
Please let me know if am missing something in it!!, it works at one
stage not at other, as i told, i couldnt get it running with
run_while() function, googling didnt gave me much info nor poe
cookbook.
