Re: getting objects via recurssion

Dear tristaanogre,

I have understood the concept of Aliasse but acutally what I am trying to do is,

In each bar item, there is a grid and I would like to test in that grid.

the grid mapping examples like this:

Aliases.process().VCLObject(txt1).VCLObject(text2).VCLObject(text3)...VCLObj(text4).VCLObject(text5)

Aliases.Process().VCLObject(txt1).VCLObject(text2).VCLObject(text10)...VCLObj(text4).VCLObject(text5)

Aliases.Process().VCLObject(txt1).VCLObject(text2).VCLObject(text10)...VCLObj(tex16).VCLObject(text5)

so I would like iterate till the cond if cond satisfy take the text 10 like that

I would like to

did you get my point now ?

thanks and Regards

Again, to be clear... you haven't mapped ANYTHING. Terminology matters. :-)

So... what I would suggest... map everything up to a point where there is a common parent. Then use the "FindAllChildren" method on that parent to search for and return a collection of all the desired child objects. That is usually returned as an array. You can then do a for loop through that array and process each item individually.

  hi Tristaanogre,
  
  At first, even I have used just like you said but, with that I have to define so many times.
  
  thats why I thought of recurssion but now I am implementing in different way.
  
  At first storing those texts values in a dictonary and list. If condition satisfies thenI will use that text into that VCLObject.
  
  With that I don't have to redefine again and agin and now its works fine
  
  thanks and Regards

    Once you've mapped something once, it never needs to be mapped again... there is your "dictionary" of objects, already built in to TestComplete.
    
    I guess I'm confused... what problem are you actually trying to solve?
