David thanks , that's seems to do the trick.
Any ideas how to break out of repeat loops in say 10 seconds as a
timeout ?
Glad it worked for you.
I take it you want a loop to execute but stop after an amount of time
apart from any other condition.
Leaving aside mechanisms which will simply kill the handler, you
will probably need to check the time before the loop, add ten seconds
to it and then inside the loop check the current time to see if you
have reached that the nominated expiry time yet.
e.g.
put the seconds + 10 into expiry
put false into timedOut
repeat <on some other condition>
<do something useful>
if the seconds > expiry then
put true into timedOut
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
-- Now checking timedOut will tell you under what condition you did
exited, normally or by time.
Does anyone have a more elegant solution for this?
regards
David
