Do we have access for BuiltIn object at Script Extensions

Hi shankar_r,

I do have a similar method to gather the command line variables. Since we have multiple project-suites, I thought of having that method in our CommonUtils - Script Extensions.

Any ideas?

Anyway thanks for your input.

Regards.

I used below function store to my command line arguments into a variable.

 

function Store_CommandLine_Parameters()
{
      var count_CL_Parameters = BuiltIn.ParamCount(); 
      var pv_ColumnName = "CL_Parameter";
      Project.Variables.CommandLineParameters.RowCount = count_CL_Parameters + 1;
       
      try
      {
            for(var a = 0 ; a <= count_CL_Parameters ; a++)
            {
                  Project.Variables.CommandLineParameters.$set(pv_ColumnName,a,aqConvert.VarToStr(BuiltIn.ParamStr(a)));
            }
            return true;      
      }
      catch(ex)
      {
            Log.Warning("Error while processing Commandline parameter(s). Error: " + ex.stack);
            return false;
      }         
}

 you can edit and do a formative or conversion in-order to meet your requirement.

The problem is, as the OP notes, the BuiltIn object is not available to be used within a Script extension (reference https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/extending/script/objects-reference/index.html).

I'm not sure how else to get commandline parameters for the TestComplete commandline.  I guess the question is, what are you using those commandline parameters for?  One thing you could do is find some other way of  passing that information into TestComplete.  For example, an INI file or XML file that is read as part of the initialization process of a test run using methods in aqFile, aqString, etc.
