I have a while loop with a stopper:
public Myloop()
{
bool execute == true;
While (execute == true)
{
// do some stuff
if (condidtion)
{
execute == false;
}
}
}
and I'm calling in from another function after it stops:
Myloop.execute = true;
Will this be enough to restart the loop? if not, how can I restart it from another function easy way?
No, Once a while loop is done it wont start again until you run the Myloop() function again:
public void RunLoopTwice(){
MyLoop();
MyLoop();
}
public void Myloop()
{
bool execute = true;
while (execute == true)
{
// do some stuff
if (condition)
{
execute = false;
}
}
}
Also normally code is executed in a synchronous order, so only 1 piece of code is executed at the time. with async/await, Task or Thread you can make multiple pieces of code run at once. If you are using any of this, you need to make sure you properly lock pieces of code to not get any race conditions.
You are confusing == and = operators, == is for comparison while = is for assignment. Read about C# Operators.
public void Myloop()
{
bool execute = true;
while (execute == true)
{
// do some stuff
if (condition)
{
execute = false;
}
}
}
Simpler way to do this is using break since you are not returning the value of execute field. Once the condition is met, while loop will terminate.
while (true)
{
// do some stuff
if (condition) break;
}
And you call the method using Myloop(); not Myloop.execute = true;.
You can do with two flags but this code will be run on the different thread because this code will go in the infinite loop.
For Ex.
public bool doLoop = true;
public bool doProcess = true;
public void MyLoop()
{
while(doLoop)
{
while(doProcess)
{
// do some stuff
if (condition)
{
doProcess = false;
}
}
}
}
After your need is completed than make doLoop false
bool execute = true;is how you assign the value.
