IfCondition Measure in a range of values

[krakoukas]

Hi Friends,

I have to use this line a lot of times in a skin :

Code: Select all

IfCondition=(MeasureName = "XXXX") || (MeasureName = "YYYY") || (MeasureName = "ZZZZ")

Is there a way to write a Condition like this :

Code: Select all

Tab =(XXXX, YYYY, ZZZZ)

IfCondition = MeasureName in Tab
...
IfCondition = MeasureName in Tab
...
IfCondition = MeasureName in Tab
...

Or maybe with another MeasureCheck ? Best way ?

IfCondition is completely numeric. You can't use it to check strings. For a such action, you have to use IfMatch instead. Something like this: IfMatch=XXXX | YYYY | ZZZZ. There also are the IfMatchAction (executed when the measure match one of the enumerated strings) and IfNotMatchAction (executed when the measure doesn't match none of the enumerated strings) options.

I don't fully understand what you are going for here. We seem to have a mixture of things going on here. Is "Tab" a variable? If so then you would need to get it into a measure first in order to use IfMatch on it.

Code: Select all

[Variables]
Tab=(XXXX, YYYY, ZZZZ)

[MeasureString]
Measure=String
String=#Tab#
DynamicVariables=1
IfMatch=XXXX
IfMatchAction=[!Log "It's XXXX"]
IfMatch2=YYYY
IfMatchAction2=[!Log "It's YYYY"]
IfMatch3=ZZZZ
IfMatchAction3=[!Log "It's ZZZZ"]

Thanks for help

Well, this works :

Code: Select all

[Measure]
IfMatch=XXX|YYY|ZZZ
IfMatchAction=[!SetOption do something]
IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption do other thing]
IfMatchMode=1

But this does not. Why ?

Code: Select all

Substitutes=XXX|YYY|ZZZ
-- Substitutes="XXX|YYY|ZZZ" 
-- does not work anymore

[Measure]
IfMatch=#Substitutes#
IfMatchAction=[!SetOption do something]
IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption do other thing]
IfMatchMode=1

-- Substitutes="XXX|YYY|ZZZ"

[Measure]
IfMatch=#Substitutes#
IfMatchAction=[!SetOption do something]
IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption do other thing]
IfMatchMode=1

Because the value being tested by IfMatch is and must be the value being returned by the measure it is on. You can't manually define the value that is being tested.

You would need something like this:

Code: Select all

Substitutes=XXX|YYY|ZZZ
-- Substitutes="XXX|YYY|ZZZ" 
-- does not work anymore

[Measure]
Measure=String
String=#Substitutes#
DynamicVariables=1
IfMatch=XXX|YYY|ZZZ
IfMatchAction=[!SetOption do something]
IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption do other thing]

[jsmorley]

I would caution that care be given to using IfMatchMode=1 on this. Ensure that you really mean, and really need, for it to fire the action EVERY TIME the measure is updated, even if the values being tested remain the same. Make sure you really want to spend the resources that entails.

Sorry I don't understand. Here is my code :

Code: Select all

Filters=Rainmeter|rainmeter|UTorrent|svchost

[MeasureProcess]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=UsageMonitor
Alias=CPU
Index=1

DynamicVariables=1
IfMatch=#Filters#
IfMatchAction=[!SetOption MeterProcess_Icone ImageName "#@#Images\\Ping\\Dot.png"]
IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption MeterProcess_Icone ImageName "#@#Images\\Ping\\Question.png"]

This code does not work. I would like the 1st process icon to be a DOT if rainmeter|UTorrent|svchost and a QUESTION if not.
Possible ?

[jsmorley]

Not sure. Seems to work for me...

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
AccurateText=1
DynamicWindowSize=1

[Variables]
Filters=Rainmeter|rainmeter|UTorrent|svchost

[MeasureProcess]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=UsageMonitor
Alias=CPU
Index=1
DynamicVariables=1
IfMatch=#Filters#
IfMatchAction=[!Log "Found"]
IfNotMatchAction=[!Log "Not Found"]

While I'm watching the log I can see the "top" process changing from Rainmeter.exe to Firefox.exe from time to time, and the log entry is the correct one.

Indeed, it does !
Thank you a lot Jsmorley, the #Filters# variables wasn't in the Variables section and wasn't interpreted. Works great & Thank you, as always !
Another stupid question from me, Balala

[jsmorley]

Good deal...
