ODT caller

Hi Andi,





Let me quote the Object-Driven Testing help topic:

To refer to the object instance to which a method belongs use the keyword Self in DelphiScript or This in VBScript, JScript, C++Script or C#Script (note the first capital). For more information, see Working With Custom Objects in Scripts.

Please let me know if this is the information you need.

Hi David,



Unfortunately i need more than that, at a logical point of view here's what i would want (the following code doesn't work as Jscript/C# script doesn't support direct object compare):





function Method()

{

  var MemberName = null;

  for (var i=0; i<This.owner.PropertyCount; i++)

     if (This.owner.Properties(i).Value == This)

         MemberName = This.owner.Properties(i).Name;



  // Do something depending on MemberName

}



I think if there would be a way to compare the references of the items in that if, i would get what i need but don't know if there's any way to do that



Thanks,



Andi

Hi Andi,





Thank you for the clarification. It is impossible to do what you want to do using the 'This' keyword. Please note that it is impossible to get the name of a variable that stores an instance of an object from a method of this object in any programming languages. So, this behavior is quite expected.





You need to add a custom identification property to your classes and use it in order to differentiate objects.
