Hello

Anyone have alert code that will continually play a sound "allertwave" for about 5 minutes?


I need it to wake me up if I fall asleep after drinking much coffee.


Thankyou fellow traders and programmers.

You could try selecting a long and loud song to play.

Figure out how long the original sound replays, and then set it to repeat indefinitely.

well, it depends on how long the sound runs.

you would use the "for" function.

extern int PlaybackTotal = 1000;

for (int i = 0; i < PlaybackTotal; i++) {
PlaySOund("alert.wav")
}

This will play the alert sound 1,000 times.

Your welcome.
Ron's suggestion would be the preferred answer to your question. I suggested a song because you talked of waking up. I personally use a long song because I like to wake up to music.

If you fall asleep, then you want it to play for 5 min.? How will the program know if you fall asleep or not?
