bind time, each quarter, (but hourly an extra command)

2005-12-20T00:08:48-04:00

Isn't that a bug in the eggdrop then?

I just checked my crontab, in there the '0 * * * * ' works fine.

eggdrop has nothing to do with crontab, so requiring 00 is not a bug

Not necessary a bug, it maybe takes it as a string 00 rather than a number. btw

Code:

bind time - "00 * * * *" ac_quarter

can be reduced to

Code:

bind time - "00 *" ac_quarter

since '*' matches everything (including spaces).

True! good eye there DarkDevil, it should be 00 in the bind and it will work perfectly as it is (without using the line I gave you).

Try

Code:

if {[string equal 00 $min]} {

00 ?

Is it "00 * * * *" (zero twice) when the hour changes?

if, then it's the bind there's wrong?

Hey!

As I said in the topic, I have it like:

Code:

bind time - "0 * * * *" ac_quarterbind time - "15 * * * *" ac_quarterbind time - "30 * * * *" ac_quarterbind time - "45* * * *" ac_quarterproc ac_quarter {min hour day month year} {  if {$min=="0"} {    ac_check    timer 1 ac_check2  } else {    ac_check  }}

Hourly, I want to do the same as each quarter, but additional an extra command should be used too, is this impossible?

I tried with if {$min=="0"}, and if {!$min} {, no one of them works hourly.

But if I do '.tcl ac_quarter 0 ', it works fine..

Simply, it ignore the hourly change when doing it automatically..

It should use ac_check hourly, and one minute after ac_check2.

If I remove ALL of the if-then-else stuff, it works fine each quarter.

Someone who know what the problem is?
