Re: Name mapping expansion
I did create a new project, confirming that JScript was the default. Now things are showing up ok. Odd However, on my new project, when I right click on a function, the option to "Run Current Routine" is greyed out so I can't actually run a function (yes, it is a function with no arguments). Ideas?806Views0likes0CommentsRe: Name mapping expansion
I remember choosing JScript as default when creating the project. When I look at Tools | Options | General | Project, I see the default set to JScript. When I create a new script, JScript is what's assumed. So I don't see that this is what explains it ...806Views0likes0CommentsName mapping expansion
In the TC editor (I'm using JScript), I can type DDT. and autocomplete gives a list of items. I can choose CSVDriver and press enter. What comes up is DDT["CSVDriver"]() rather than DDT.CSVDriver() I prefer the latter as being easier to read. The same thing is happening with name mapping. I can type frmParent. (mapped to a form named frmParent) and a list of mapped objects comes up. I can choose frmEditCodes and what comes up is frmParent["frmEditCodes"] whereas what I'd prefer is frmParent.frmEditCodes Any idea how to change it?20KViews0likes4CommentsRe: Checking for object existence
Sorry for the delay, was distracted by other stuff ... I ran your suggested code on a form whose path did not include frmMainMenu. The result was an exception: The Aliases.STUV1.frmParent.frmMainMenu.panel2 object does not have a child with the name "lblUser". The problem I'm having is that I want to test the existence of an object, but get an exception if any of the objects in its path do not exist.817Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cannot open file
This begs a couple of questions. 1. Why should TC permit creation of a path that's longer than 260 characters? 2. Why can I run TC on a project that has a long path (greater than 260 chars) but cannot do so on a copy. (I did manage to make what I think was an exact copy on the Win 7 machine using xcopy.)1KViews0likes0CommentsCannot open file
I'm getting the attached error message when I open a TC project. Here's the background. I developed the project on one machine (Vista). I wanted to copy it to another machine (Win 7) to run the tests there. There was a problem copying the file mentioned in the error message; apparently the file name was too large. I eventually reverted to xcopy to get things over. The file did show up. However, when I run TC on the Win 7 machine, I get the error message. On the Vista machine I don't. Any suggestions? I want to use long file names as they're descriptive of tests and can be converted automatically into sentences (Test: [Global Protocol Setup Form] : Enabled Machine Type And Treatment Type Should Match Instances).15KViews0likes3CommentsChecking for object existence
I'm trying to figure out how to check whether an object exists. There's a lot of stuff on the TC site about this, but I can't seem to find what addresses my fairly simple need. I want to check whether Aliases.STUV1.frmParent.frmMainMenu.panel2.lblUser exists or not (I'm using Javascript in TC for a .NET 4.0 WinForms application). WaitWindow doesn't seem like the right thing to use. I know there are other WaitNNN methods but don't know which to use. tia, Bill15KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Using ParamByName with ADO.CreateAdoStoredProc()
Right, I got that. But why would it be so hard to give a pointer? It's really not clear where TC-specific stuff ends and 3rd party stuff begins. Telling me (a) that I need to look elsewhere and (b) where to go look shouldn't be that big a deal.1.3KViews0likes0Comments
