VB Runtime Error with The Case of the Method Name When Using ScriptExtension

I currently met a problem using ScriptExtension in TestComplete 9.31.3889.7. When I tried to call my method defined in ScriptExtension, there is always a VB runtion error.



My code is as follows:

=========================================


Sub VerifyMaintenanceScreen(ByVal strDriverName)


        Call Log.AppendFolder("Verify the data in the Maintenance Screen.")


        'Verify the fields


        HTML.TextBox.verifyvalue(id, value)


        Call Log.PopLogFolder


End Sub

=========================================



The runtime error is as follows:

=========================================


Object doesn't support this property or method: 'HTML.TextBox.VerifyValue'

Error location:

Unit: "BaseModule\BaseModule\Script\BASE_GeneralizedCodeGroup"

Line: 182 Column: 9.

=========================================



I didn't quite understand why I called method "HTML.TextBox.verifyvalue" but the TestComplete considered the method I called as  'HTML.TextBox.VerifyValue'.



Is this a bug or something?

    Hi Kevin,



    You're missing Call before the verifyvalue method call:



    If you omit Call, you must also drop the parentheses around the argument list:

    Yes， but after I have added Keyword "Call", the same error still exists.

    Hi Kevin,

      


     Is HTML the name of the runtime object in your script extension? Make sure that all properties and methods of your object are properly created in the Description.xml file. Refer to the "Structure of the Description File" article for details.

    Maybe I didn't explain the issue clearly. The problem is the method I define in ScriptExtension is "verifyvalue" (all characters are in lower case) and the method I called is "verifyvalue" (lower case as well). But the TestComplete considered that I call a method "VerifyValue" (two "v" are both in upper case), and think the method I called didn't exist. But actually, I didn't call "VerifyValue" (upper case) at all.

    Hi Kevin,

      


     Can you post here the RuntimeObject node from the Description.xml file where you create the method?
