OCX Type Object

[Fabio Andrés]

Hello every one
I have an Visual Basic application, Rational Robot version 2003.06.13.402.000


I have a problem to recognize a Button OCX object type. In ObjectMap I have:

BT_SALIR="Type=OCX;Name=BT_SALIR"

When the script is running in GenericObjectFunctions, Sub GenericClick(Optional action), the cursor enters to:
CASE ELSE
   GenericObject action, .compGUIID, parameter

but    GenericObject 1301, "Type=OCX;Name=BT_SALIR","" doesn't work ok.

could help me please, what must I do?

Thanks in advanced.

Sorry no one has tried to answer this one for you.  I was out on vacation all last week.

What action are you trying to run?
What does "doesn't work" mean?  What kind of error are you getting?  Are you getting no error?  Does everything say "success", but the action did not really happen?

Does the action correctly playback if you record it in a script?
What are the recognition string(s) recorded if you make a Robot script?

Carl

Hi Carl, I hope you enjoyed the vacation.

My problem was solved, all it ocurred was: the robot does clic on saved button, but inmediatly appears an msgbox causing a lost of focus into windows, so any object is does not recognize any more. when the robot going to make clic on exit button but is not found.
I solved it using (X,Y) coordinates to make clic on exit button.
however when the frame work do not found any object, many times follow on and the message log is: example. "the Click performed on BConexion" but this is false. ¿what solution exists for this?

I have another question, what must I do, when new objects are made
thanks for advanced

1.  My problem was solved, all that ocurred was: the robot does a click on Save
button, but immediately appears an msgbox causing a loss of focus to other
windows.  So Robot does not find underlying components any more.  When Robot tries
to click on Exit button it is not found.

Carl asks: Exit is not found?  What recognition string are you using?  What is recorded in a Robot script when you click the Exit button?  Does such a script properly play back?


2.  I can use (X,Y) coordinates to click on Exit button.
However when the frame work does not find an object, many times in
the message log is: "Click performed on BConexion", but this
is false. ¿what solution exists for this?

Carl responds: Usually this means we found the component and we told Robot to Click it.  However, if Robot is unsuccessful in Clicking we may not be made aware of it.  Usually this would occur if the component is being obstructed or covered by another component or window.  Make sure your automation handles whatever windows or obstructions that might be getting in the way.  Also, make sure your Robot settings for "Unexpected Active Window" and "Error Recovery" in Tools->GUI Playback Options are configured as documented in the SAFS setup documents.  Primarily, these types of runtime issues must be configured to "Continue Execution".


3.  I have another question, what must I do, when new objects are made.

Carl asks: I'm going to need you to clarify this one.  I don't know what you mean by "when new objects are made".  Explain more fully what you are referring to and what you think you have to do or want to do.  What is the scenario in which new objects are made?  As a wild guess I will point you to some info on Dynamic Object Recognition:
