script automatique

Bonjour, est-il possible de faire un script sous JMP qui se lance automatiquement toutes les n minutes ? (JMP 17)

I think you can build a loop in JMP to do so, but better would be to use the Operating System to schedule the task like possible in Windows etc.

@Georg suggested using the OS scheduler to relaunch JMP periodically.

JMP also has a schedule() function, but it requires leaving JMP running.

great, thanks, was not aware of, that's the reason why reading community is quit helpful!

So I think the solution depends on the environment and requirement in detail. We use task scheduler of operating system, so that for each run a new instance of JMP is started.

Don't forget to add the //!" to the first line if you try to run this via task scheduler (windows). This is so it will automatically run and not just open.

Line1:

//!

In my case I have not used the //!, because I found it annoying when opening the script for editing it would have executed all the time (I often forgot ...).

Instead in Win10 using Task-Scheduler, and adding JMP.exe as Program and the script path as optional argument, JMP executes the script in defined way, so "//!" is not needed. Of course, the script needs to close JMP after finishing ( Quit(); ).

See Help > Scripting Index. Then search for the Schedule() function. This function works entirely within JMP and does not rely on the OS.
