Hi,  I would like to access the TcpClient class located in the system.dll file. I have managed to execute this with the .net assemblies link, but how can I make this  work if I would like to import ...

    I'm not sure I understand your concern.  The CLR bridge settings for any project are stored in the project file itself so, as long as the .NET installation is installed on the target machine, the project shouldn't need reconfigured.

Hi, thanks for you reply. 

The reason why I don't want to use the CLR bridge is that I don't  want to have that dependency to manually configure the testcomplete project on any machine that I would like to execute any tests on. Therefore I'm looking for a solution to use the TCP client class or any alternative from the script.

    The other possibility could be for you to do something like

     

    Sys.OleObject(<classID>)

    To create an instance of the TCPClient object. I did some poking around and I wasn't able to find an appropriate class ID to utilize for instantiating the TCPClient object. Doesn't mean it's not possible, but I suspect that, as part of a .NET assembly, it's not immediately accessible to TestComplete without going through the CLR bridge.
