How to stop the execution of the next trigger line
|
If previous line has returned true.
For example
Variables: a= 0, b=0, c=0
#IF (test=on) {#SW (@a=0) {#show a fired;var a 1} (@b=0) {#show b fired;#var b 1} (@c=0) {#show c fired;#var c 1}}
At the moment, the trigger fires everything at once because all the above variables are true. However i want it to fire in order and only one command at a time.. So first it would fire a=0 and set a to 1, then the next time it would fire b=0 and so on..
I have tried using #abort, #abort all, #break. And nothing seems to have worked for me ..
That is how i used them
#IF (test=on) {#SW (@a=0) {#show a fired;var a 1;#abort all} (@b=0) {#show b fired;#var b 1;#abort all} (@c=0) {#show c fired;#var c 1;#abort all}} |

Hmm, Just made this basic test alias and it seems to be working, but fails to work in my complex trigger, off for more testing

If you tell us a bit more about what you are actually trying to do, we could probably help. From your brief description, it sounds like a multistate trigger might be a better solution.

Sorry, i jumped the gun a bit asking you guys for help - #abort all does actually work very well, i simply made a clumsy mistake . Topic closed : )

I'm surprised CMud even considers that valid syntax. You are basically trying to use #IF as a #SWITCH.

Iam ?
i use #if to check for a first condition, and if that one returns true then #SW checks are activated ? What is the the proper way to build a multi-condition trigger ? |

#IF syntax goes like this:
| Code: |
| #IF (expression) {code to execute when expression is true} {code to execute when expression is false} |
#SWITCH syntax goes like this:
| Code: |
| #SWITCH (expression1) {code to execute if expression1 is true} (expression2) {code to execute if expression2 is true}...(expressionN) {code to execute if expressionN is true} |
| Code: |
#SWITCH (expression1) {
code to execute if expression1 is true
}
(expression2) {
code to execute if expression2 is true
}
(expressionN) {
code to execute if expressionN is true
} |
#SWITCH only evaluates for true, and each expression can be different from the others. |

And that's what he's doing. The entire code of the #switch is inside the {} of the #if.
FOO:
#SW (@a=0) {#show a fired;var a 1;#abort all} (@b=0) {#show b fired;#var b 1;#abort all} (@c=0) {#show c fired;#var c 1;#abort all}
#IF (test=on) {FOO} |

You have var a 1 instead of #var a 1 also. With the switch, it should stop on the first expression that returns true so I don't see why abort all would be necessary. Also it is a lot easier to just use (!@a) instead of (@a=0).
If you run the following alias:
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
<alias name="test" copy="yes">
<value>#SW (!@a) {
#print a fired
#var a 1
} (!@b) {
#print b fired
#var b 1
} (!@c) {
#print c fired
#var c 1
} </value>
</alias>
</cmud>
|
On the first run it will print "a fired". On the next run it will print "b fired". On the run after that it will print "c fired". That is of course if you start with a, b, and c all set to false or 0.
If they are all true, nothing should print to the screen at all. |

Thanks oldguy, seems that #sw works in a different way and wont loop through values like #if would in that situation, thank you!
