Usage of Perl expression in attr wait

[Nestor]

I want to change the wait time for a DOIF during the weekend.
The following seems not be working:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

(($we ? 18 : 16) * HOURSECONDS)

What is valid syntax to use?

I would try with:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

{($we ? 18 : 16) * HOURSECONDS}

Makes sense.
The example in the DOIF#wait command ref is kind of confusing, since no curly braces are used for Perl expressions.

Code Auswählen Erweitern

attr my_doif wait 1:[mydummy:state]*3:rand(600)+100,Attr("mydevice","myattr","")

Maybe this could be clarified?

[Nestor]

Code Auswählen Erweitern

{($we ? 18 : 16) * HOURSECONDS}

Update: this does not work.
I suppose the code needs to put in a function because Perl expressions are not accepted in attr wait if I understand command ref correctly.

I'm afraid you're right. That would have been my second proposition.

Code Auswählen Erweitern

(($we ? 18 : 16) * HOURSECONDS)

Syntax is ok, but $we is unknown at wait

Would IsWe() work?

Would IsWe() work?
