Lua running in main loop but not in a button???

[twannieguitar 6]

Hi

 

I have some code which is running fine in the main loop but when I copy the EXACT code into a button it does not run at all...

the debug screen stays blank.

 

Is there a difference in handling between those except one rinning in loop?

 

Example of the code:

Lua code runs in main loop only.

To run the code in button, you need to press the button. This is the hole idea of having buttons.

Yes I understand of course 

But it does not run when pressing the button too!!

and yes, the "lua" is marked

No errors also?

I'm trying to understand you code and looks like the code runs OK, but you did some strange case

if (nano == nil)

then nano = Net.FHttp(ipAdress,port)

else

...

...

end

Since when you press the button nano is NIL, so nothing executed

The main loop memorizes "nano" as a global value...  a button is local!
