VBS multiple looping .vbs on one PC



Can VBS run two infinite loops?



I wrote an FTP downloader.



And I wrote a script that distributes the downloads to several folders.



Both are never-ending loops



Problems occur when I run them both: it seems only the .vbs started last, works error free.



When I start the distributor first, it fails later on when the ftp downloader is active and vice versa.



Could it be they "see" each others variables? I'm stuck and got no clue as to what is going on.



Could FileSystemObjects block each other? Claim folders or files so the other .vbs can't work with them?





Okay, voted down again. I can't post the scripts here as they are massive. Can VBS run two infinite loops?

Why use a loop and not schedule task?

what is the distributor and what is the downloader. They seem to be 2 different things

The downloader grabs files from the FTP and puts them in a buffer folder. Each file that seems okay, is then transferred to a ticket folder and deleted from the FTP. this is loop 1.

The distributor looks into the ticket folder and distributes the content over 4 node folders for rendering. This is loop 2.

I forgot ftp.exe leads its own life outside of my VBS. The download was initated by the VBS and then the VBS jumped into handling the files. This can go wrong if the download hasn't finished.

Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Firebase Auth - with Email and Password - Check user already registered I want to check when a user attempts to signup with createUserWithEmailAndPassword() in Firebase user Authentication method, this user is already registered with my app. createUserWithEmailAndPassword() 8 Answers 8 To detect whether a user with that email address already exists, you can detect when the call to createUserWithEmailAndPassword () fails with auth/email-already-in-use . I see that @Srinivasan just posted an answer for this. createUserWithEmailAndPassword () auth/email-already-in-use Alternatively, you can detect that an email address is already used by calling fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() (previous called fetchProvidersForEmail() ). fetchSignInMethodsForEmail() fetchProvidersForEmail() When the user trying to create an user with same email address, the task response will be "Response: The email address is already in use by another account." mFirebas

Dynamically update html content plain JS

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP Dynamically update html content plain JS So I have a script bound in my index.html, which literally has to fetch an array of jsons from an api, then dynamically update my page when get response. But as a result I'm getting an as the only update of my page. here is my script fetch(url) .then((resp) => resp.json()) .then((resp) => resp.results.forEach(item => fetch(item.url) .then((response)=> response.json()) .then((response) => pokeArr.push(response)) .catch(console.log) ) ).catch(console.log) const filler = () => if(!pokeArr) return 0 pokeArr.map((i,j)=> return `<tr>$i.name</tr>` ) const pokeindex = () => document.getElementById('a').appendChild(document.createElement(filler())) pokeindex() When I'm consoling it, I can see in the console all the responses I get, so I'm at least doing the fetching part right. What's parberakan ? What's pokeArr ? – T.J. Crowder Aug 8 at 12

How to determine optimal route across keyboard

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP How to determine optimal route across keyboard I'm trying to automate the typing process in a video game. Players are given an on-screen QWERTY keyboard layout that they can navigate with the control stick (up, down, left, right) in order to select a letter to type. I was wondering if there was a module for Python (or some other resource I could explore) that would help my program find a path across the keyboard as it types each letter in a given message. In other words, if the first letter typed was "A" and the next letter was "B", the module would know that the program should move 1 space down on the keyboard and 4 spaces to the right. Currently, I have the program resetting to the "G" key after each letter is typed (allowing me to use fixed-directions as the program parses each character in the desired message). As you can imagine, this is quite inefficient and defeats the purpose of automating the typing in the fir
