RoboTask forum

Hi,
Is there a way to accelerate a text loop task ?
Thanks by advance.

Here is my task :

How many lines in the text?
How much time it takes to process this file?

Try to insert into beginning of the task the action "Minimize RoboTask". The task will be executed faster, when main window is hidden.

Hi Oleg,
I've made a test with a 3300 lines text file and it takes
about 1min40sec to complete. When I minimise Robotask, it
takes only about 30sec. It's great.
Is there another way to do such a loop ?
In other words, is there a way to help RT to do is his job
faster ?

Thanks for you help.

Also you can save some time if you write text file only ones at the end of the task.
You can form your text in memory in the loop and write it to file after the loop.

Algorithm is simple:

Set variable MyText with ""
Text Loop
   ...
   if then
      Set variable MyText with {MyText}{LINELOGTOTAL}{EOL}
      //with expanding of Variable value
   end if
   ...
end loop
Write Text File with {MyText}
