Unable to find 'MFC Control Support' extension


Hi,


 


I am automating application developed in C++. In Object browser I see objects are C++ objects. 


The prequisites says I should have below plugins installed


MFC Controls Support


Rogue Wave Controls Support


 


 I am unable to find 'MFC Control Support' extension in File > Install Extensions. I have verified that I have installed 'Open Applications Support'.


However, in Project Properties > Object Mapping I am able to see 'MFC' under 'Microsoft controls.'


Can you please confirm if this is the default behaviour or there is an issue with the plug in installation?


 


I am unable to get all the methods/properties of C++ objects. Also test execution is very slow.


 


e.g. Object with WndClass: SysListView32 , 


Unable to select item based on text/get selected item/search through list having multiple columns. Getting error message as 'Failed to get the text of the list view item'

    Hi Annie,


     


    Support for these controls is added to the Microsoft Control Support plug-in that is enabled on your screenshot.


     


    As for the issue you faced, please make sure that your tested app is compiled with debug information. The "Preparing Visual C++ Applications for Testing" article contains the detailed instructions on how to do this based on the IDE version.
