I get an erroneous "Cross references are not allowed." message

I have two JavaScript files - Main_TrussStudio and DesignTrusses1A.  When I attempt to run the test from the Main script file the script view jumps to the DesignTrusses1A file and presents an error d...

    Nope, still doesn't answer my question.

     

    Open up the script file ToolbarFunctions_TSLayout

     

    What USEUNIT statements, if any, are in that file.  Circular references are chained in.  So, even if Main is not DIRECTLY mentioned in DesignTrusses1A, if there is a reference to Main in ToolbarFunctions_TSSLayout, that may generate the error as well.

     

    So... basically, go down the line and examine ALL your code units and make sure that NONE of them reference back to your Main unit.

Does ToolbarFunctions_TSLayout reference Main_TrussStudio at all?

No, the unit DialogFunctions_TSTruss does not contain any USEUNIT references to Main_TrussStudio.

 

There is something else that I failed to mention.  TestComplete appears to be fixated on the second line of the DesignTrusses1A unit.  I have tried reordering the USEUNIT lines and no matter what unit is referenced in line 2 TestComplete always throws the same error.  TestComplete seems to think that the second line is "//USEUNIT Main_TrussStudio" no matter what is there.

 

I have even tried copying the contents of DesignTrusses1A to a new unit file with a different name, then deleted the original DesignTrusses1A, and then renamed the copy back to DesignTrusses1A and that also didn't work.  TestComplete still manifests the same bogus error.

    That's not what I asked. :)

     

    You mentioned 

     

    "//USEUNIT ToolbarFunctions_TSLayout"

     

    is at the top of DesignTrusses1A.

     

    So, in that unit (ToolbarFunctions_TSLayout), what are the USEUNIT statements in that unit?  Circular reference doesn't apply to just the units that are immediately related but, because you can chain call through USEUNIT, it goes down the line to them all.
