WIRE THREAD POINT


Recommended Posts

Hello to all. I know that wire is not the most used.

I need the next thread point, but I have a problem, If I have only a chain in the current operation when with opinfo (14008 and 14009) I get the new point all is correct, is the new point.

But the problem is when I have some chains in the same operation, If I get the next point It returns the next point for the next operation too.

I need the next point if it is a new chain in the current operation or if it is a new chain  in a new operation. 

I hope you understand me, sorry fot my bad english

In my experience a lot of opinfo function do not work in wire, but you can try something like the following with opinfo to read the next op. I hope this helps.  

current_op : 0
next_op: 0

 

      current_op = opinfo(op_id$, 0)
      next_op = opinfo(op_id$, 1)
      if current_op = next_op, # First operation   
        [
            "First_op",  ~threadx$, ~thready$, ~threadz$, e$
        ]
      else, if next_op = (current_op + 1), # Next operation
        [
            "Next_op", ~threadx$, ~thready$, ~threadz$, e$
        ]
        else, # Last operation next_op =  -99999.
        [
            "Last_op",  ~threadx$, ~thready$, ~threadz$, e$
        ]
