bind cron

[ldevries]

I have a .tcl script that calls for a event on mar 19 @ 8:20am. I have the following entry:

Code: Select all

bind cron - "20 08 19 03 *" do_hs_post 

proc do_hs_post {min hour day month weekday} { 
global stockchan 
putserv "privmsg $stockchan :\0034Economic Event In 10 Minutes\017 - \00312Housing Market Index\017" 
} 

however, for some strange reason it is executing everyday. What am I doing wrong.

You could try bind time

bind time - "min hour day month year" procname

In the partyline, do:
.binds *cron*
and see what you have listed.

Perhaps you have edited that bind, (and you used .rehash) and an old bind is still there?
If so, the solution is to do: .restart

thanks.. gave that a try and it did not post... I had

Code: Select all

bind time - "55 16 16 03 *" do_test_post

proc do_test_post {min hour day month year} {
	global stockchan
	putserv "privmsg $stockchan :\0034Economic Event In 10 Minutes\017 - \00312test\017"
}

I confirmed witn .bind *time*

<STBot> TYPE FLAGS COMMAND HITS BINDING (TCL)
<STBot> time -|- 55 16 16 03 * 0 do_test_post

.binds *cron*
and see what you have listed.

I have the following to clear bind crons & time on .rehash which works

Code: Select all

proc removeallbinds {bindtype} {
 foreach bind [binds $bindtype] {
 unbind [lindex $bind 0] [lindex $bind 1] [lindex $bind 2] [lindex $bind 4]
 }
}

removeallbinds cron
removeallbinds time

After doing some more research I found that march month is 02 not 03. Thus it works and the problem is now solved. Thanks for your help
