Editing TC Project outside of TC
Folks, Can anyone explain how / where Project level variables are stored in a TC project? To add some detail - we have uDeploy in place here, and we'll soon be wanting to run our TC pro...

Hi Steve,
You can't just edit a TC project file to change a project variable value. The variables are not cleary indentified with values easy to read in any of the xml format configuration files.
Like Thomas, we went for the function variable setting option with something like this:
function setProjectVariable(aVariableName, aValue)
{
Log.Message("Before Setting values");
if( ! Project.Variables.VariableExists(aVariableName))
{
Log.Message("Project.Variables." + aVariableName + " does not exist. It will be created");
Project.Variables.AddVariable(aVariableName);
}
Log.Message("Project.Variables." + aVariableName + " = " + eval("Project.Variables." + aVariableName +";"));
eval("Project.Variables." + aVariableName + "=" + '"' + aValue + '"' + ";");
Log.Message("After Setting values");
Log.Message("Project.Variables." + aVariableName + " = " + eval("Project.Variables." + aVariableName +";"));

}
