One Alias/Mapping for several parallel running instances of a program

Hi there,   I have a little perhaps trivial question I do not know how to solve.   Given:  - A program named GpxSimulator basing on C#.NET with a multi-tab gui - A mapping/alias to GpxSim...

Hi Alex,

 

thank you for your fast reply. After fiddling around with it I came up to this solution (I've wrote me a littler wrapper around ProjectVariables):

 

def class_device_simulator_gui_local_test():
  """ """
  set_project_variable("ProcessId", "INTEGER", 3076)
  Log.Message("{}".format(get_project_variable("ProcessId")))  
  Aliases.GpxSimulator.RefreshMappingInfo() #<-- never forget!!!
  Log.Message("{} {}".format(Aliases.GpxSimulator.Id, Aliases.GpxSimulator.Index))
  item = Aliases.GpxSimulator.MainWindow.mainSplitContainer.SplitterPanel.mainTabControl.versionsTabPage.versionsListView.SelectItem(11)
  Log.Message("{}".format(item))
     
  set_project_variable("ProcessId", "INTEGER", 5676)
  Log.Message("{}".format(get_project_variable("ProcessId")))
  Aliases.GpxSimulator.RefreshMappingInfo() #<-- and again: never forget!!
  Log.Message("{} {}".format(Aliases.GpxSimulator.Id, Aliases.GpxSimulator.Index))
  item = Aliases.GpxSimulator.MainWindow.mainSplitContainer.SplitterPanel.mainTabControl.versionsTabPage.versionsListView.SelectItem(11)
  Log.Message("{}".format(item))

This works fine, but one should never forget the RefreshMappingInfo()-call. That cost me a lot of time ;-)

 

Kind Regards
