Re: aqFileSystem.CreateFolder returns true but didn't create folder
baxatobThat would indeed work but i'm using windows- style path strings as project variables which are used by code. Your solution would be hard to maintain if the path changes because they would reside in a script instead of the standardized location for variables. Nonetheless thanks for the reply, i'm sure it'll come in handy one day.2.2KViews0likes0CommentsRe: aqFileSystem.CreateFolder returns true but didn't create folder
HKosovaThanks for the reply, that seems to be partially a viable solution. Works fine: path = os.path.expandvars("%TEMP%\\myFolder\\") I'm calling my function with a project variable (a string of course) as argument, like this: function(Project.Variables.myLocation) The project variable contains %TEMP%\myFolder\ Doesn't work: def function(path): path = os.path.expandvars(path) Throws error "Invalid number of parameters". Does work: def function(path): path = os.path.expandvars(str(path)) which is what i'll be using. Strange nonetheless (at least to me) but i'm glad it's a one-line solution to my problem!:smileyvery-happy:2.2KViews0likes3CommentsaqFileSystem.CreateFolder returns true but didn't create folder
First of all, I'm using TestComplete 11.20.1491.7, I'm on Windows 7 Business 64 bit SP1 and I'm scripting with python. When using environment variables in your path,aqFileSystem.CreateFolder returns true but the folder does not appear to be created. Example:aqFileSystem.CreateFolder("%temp%\\folderName") Result: Returns true, but no folder appears Example:aqFileSystem.CreateFolder("C:\\Users\\lagrouw\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\folderName") Result: Returns true, folder appears Same result for %systemdrive%, so it's not user-related (in case TestComplete runs as a different user for some reason) I couldn't find a known issue on this and it's possible to work around it but it's really, really inconvenient. If i'm doing something i'm not supposed to or if there's something i can do to fix this i'd love to hear it!Solved2.2KViews0likes7Comments
